Dean, thanks for explanation.
Now coming back to the original question, is there a book which explains all this step by step. I am looking for a book which acts like a guide to navigate the sky.
Thanks,

Try 'Turn Left at Orion' a book which brings it down to easy to follow steps to start finding your way around the sky.
Also if you haven't got it already download Stellarium (free) to your PC. You can set it up to your own location and time so it will show what is within view above you currently. Then you can research and walk outside to compare. Gives quite a realistic view and is easy to use. You'll get the hang of it from that and you can match any printed charts to it and the real thing.
