If you don't know many constellations and stars but would like to - this book is for you. You will become comfortable in walking outside on a clear night and locating, naming, and recounting some history or science concerning the major constellations, stars, and planets. The information spans history from the most ancient to the most recent. The primary emphasis is on locating and naming but there are also explanations of the movements and apparent movements we see in our night sky.
