Book Reviews of the Exploring the Night Sky: The Equinox Astronomy Guide for Beginners
Customer Review: Did well in 1987 .... needs a new edition now.
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a good introduction, and the pictures are great. However, it's dated now. "Jupiter will be below Pegasus in 1987". The stargazing sections give a useful, though basic, guide to the night sky for each season, taking the reader logically from one constellation to another. References to the locations of the planets span 1987 to 1999. Don't look to this book if you want to know where to see the planets tonight. Despite that, the book was worth buying as a first introduction to astronomy.
