2017 Guide to the Night Sky: A Month-by-month Guide to Exploring the Skies Above North America

Great book. Saves time downloading monthly sky maps. Includes monthly charts and the many sky events that occur throughout the year (e.g., moon calendars; meteors showers; the planets; ecliptic charts; diagrams of interesting events; plus sky and constellation maps throughout).I hope they produce one of these every year for North America.One improvement would be a spiral bound version. This would make the book much easier to use in the field.

I work with cadets as an Aerospace Education Officer with the Civil Air Patrol. This book is great for celestial observations. With this book I know what to look for ahead of time, and can make great lesson plans. An excellent reference.

This little book is chocked full of info for the beginning amateur astronomer. This 2017 edition also includes the complete track of the upcoming August 2017 solar eclipse, across the breadth of the U.S., from Charleston SC to Portland OR.

Amazing book for starters. It is well written and covers all your bases on what to search for on particular months. I find that the constellations to be very easy to learn after reading this. Also, it gives me a reason to go outside on particular nights of the month to search for stars and objects.

great supplement book to the magazines. I would highly recommend this book to any astronomer out there.

Content with product. Prompt service.

Compliments my experience with my telescope

Really great. Similar to RASC Observers Handbook.Plenty of information packed into a portable guide. Now all we need are moonless nights without cloud cover. Has been months!

Es una excelente guía y a muy buen precio, tengan en cuenta que la guia está en inglés, y que es para el año 2017, el cual ya está por terminar

The first 19 pages are a very well written introductory guide to star gazing. Hopefully, the month by month sections will be of the same caliber. Time will tell.
