Sky vistas : astronomy for binoculars and richest-field telescopes
"Sky Vistas is an observing guide to the celestial objects and Milky Way fields visible in binoculars and "richest-field" telescopes. The book not only describes these objects and how to find them, it explains where they are located within the spiral structure of our Milky Way Galaxy or, in the case of the surprisingly many galaxies visible in wide-field instruments, where they are in intergalactic space with respect to our own Galaxy." "Sky Vistas is also the first book-length collection of the work of Gerald Rhemann. The nearly 100 color and black-and-white photos not only illustrate the objects and fields described in the text, they themselves are a breath-taking "walk along the Milky Way.""--Jacket
