A Hundred Night Sky Objects to See in a Small Telescope - and How to Find Them! -- This is a guidebook for beginning amateur astronomers. The moon, planets and nearly a hundred deep sky objects visible in the northern hemisphere are shown exactly as they appear in a small telescope (50-75 mm, or 2-3 inches aperture). -- The book gives all the information you need to find these and other objects in the night sky. -- There are plenty of maps and the large format drawings accurately depict what you can expect to see. -- Unlike many guides to the night sky, this one is specifically written for observers using small telescopes. -- No previous knowledge of astronomy is needed, and since the descriptions are non-technical, skywatchers of all ages and backgrounds can enjoy and learn from this book.
