I love this book- I wish there was an emoticon doing cartwheels!!
Thanks Suzy for the insight into which books you use! Much appreciated!
I am looking to get another observation book, so your excitement is pushing me into action.
For myself at present, I use Sky Atlas 2000 and Hartungs to plan a night's list and find things. If I need to identify a strange object I pull out the comprehensive Herald-Bobroff Astroatlas (esp. for LMC). I also have a copy of NGC 2000 handy when planning.
Books! I love them and they DO help me to plan and find things!
