Astronomy Within Reach

Finally astronomy is explained in a way that we can all understand. This title is not only a good read with explanations of things we normally cannot comprehend, but it makes for a great textbook. Having a keen interest in navigation I immediately made use of the detailed Table of Contents and paged to 158, Star Charts. As I started reading I recognised many known terms and definitions but kept on reading. After every page I felt like I learnt something because the explanations finally made sense and the pieces of the puzzle started to fit together. I also soon realised that I needed to understand certain terms first before I could fully comprehend what this chapter had to offer, so I paged back to page one.
