Description

Anyone can be an amateur astronomer. If you begin with the North Star and follow through the constellations in the order given in this book, it is only a question of a few clear nights before the brighter stars of the particular month will have become familiar. Then, by watching the rising time of the bright stars in succeeding months, the remainder will not be difficult to recognize and remember.
