Hey Raj
I am not sure what the problem is.i have a copy of the Cambridge photographic star atlas and it covers the whole sky?

I think the photographers spent a lot of time in Namibia to image the southern sky..it really is a whole sky atlas..through a 50mm lens. It's a quality production though perhaps not the most useful for someone trying to starhop.

If it is a bit overwhelming get hold of a free star chart from the Internet ..there are many. A great starting point is http://www.skymaps.com/

But it may be an idea to start with a good beginners book...I love Turn left at Orion myself even though it was northern hemisphere centric
