Hello Everybody,
Does anybody own "Double Stars for Small Telescopes: More Than 2,100 Stellar Gems for Backyard Observers (Stargazing Series)"? I would appreciate comments, descriptions and/or criticisms before I commit to buying it over the internet. ($54 from Bintel, significantly cheaper from Amazon...)
Don't worry, I won't hold it against anyone if it turns out I disagree with their assessment.
Thanks in advance,
Brian.
PS Do they happen to use SAO numbers at all (which is what my Autostar uses)? And is the northern hemisphere bias too excessive?
