5.0 out of 5 stars Publisher of 'Astronomy Digest' E-Zine, 14 Aug 1999

By A Customer

Chet Raymo takes a Reader's Digest approach to Astronomy and presents the wonders of the universe in an enjoyable and easy to read manner. The book is divided into 365 segments to give a clear picture of the sky every night of the year. This is an Excellent book to learn the sky and constellations. The main focus of the book is naked eye astronomy, but would also be useful for binocular and small telescope observers. The book is full of hundreds of charts, drawings, and maps that help in explaining the night sky. Rather than sitting down and reading this book from cover to cover, I enjoy reading this book throughout the year. 365 Starry Nights would be a good book for a beginner astronomer, or anyone who enjoys the night skies.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Book + Fantasic Read, 20 Jan 2001

By	bev.west@virgin.net (South Wales UK) - See all my reviews

Well what a super read and so easy to understand , with no Cosmic jargon and quantum physics to baffle the budding astronomer. Certainly one of the best books on astronomy that I have ever read and a must for those who are starting out in the hobby of astronomy . And for those who like constellation hunting this is the book for you as it is made so very easy indeed... Thanks to Chet Raymo............ Bev West.

5.0 out of 5 stars A friend to help you find all the stars in your sky., 13 Aug 1998

By A Customer

This lovely book is for all of the folks who swear that one picture is worth a thousand words. The beautiful, romantic illustrations make it possible for novices to easily discern what stars are in their sky on whatever day of the year it happens to be. My husband and I have enjoyed our book for ten years. Whenever we look skyward on a clear and brilliant night, we open our book to the exact day and month that it happens to be. We find wonderful drawings and lots of information about stars that are in our sky. We can see explicit pictures that diagram the constellations of the night. This book shows us the stars that we will soon be able find on the horizon and the ones that will be over our heads when we turn off our porch light and step outside. The stories of the ancient myths are compelling. The science of astronomy is infused gently by the author and the readers absorb it as if it were by osmosis.
