"an excellent guidebook for binocular sky exploring. because of the wide field of view, binoculars open up the night sky to hundreds of solar objects like comets, meteors, planets, and the moon, as well as deeper sky objects like stars, double and multiple stars, star clusters (globular clusters are my favorite, like cotton balls of the dark sky), nebulae, and galaxies (the local neighborhood). each constellation is examined for messier objects that are visible through binoculars, noting location in degrees, magnitude, and any special attribute associated with the object. a friendly pat on the back, letting you know that you dont necessarily need that BIG scope to view the heavens."
