No previous knowledge of astronomy is needed, and since the descriptions are non-technical, sky-watchers of all ages and backgrounds can enjoy and profit from this book. Unlike many guides to the night sky, this one is specifically written for observers using small telescopes. For each object there is information on the current state of our astronomical knowledge. There are plenty of maps to get you located, and the large format drawings accurately depict what you can expect to see. The book provides all the information you need to find these, and other objects, in the night sky.
The Moon, planets and nearly a hundred deep sky objects, visible in the Northern hemisphere, are shown exactly as they appear in a small telescope (50-75 mm, or 2-3 inches aperture).
Turn Left at Orion is a guidebook for beginning amateur astronomers.
