Well done Scott, a very good summary of what we can expect to find in the book.

This is how I first learnt the constellations, back in the early seventies when I was in my early teens! This is the only approach that makes sense, instead of some of the frankly stupid geometrical representations that just don't reflect the constellation name.

The self test maps with constellation lines left out, and tips how to navigate from one place to another are real strengths.
