Description
Excerpt from A Beginner''s Star-Book, an Easy Guide to the Stars and to the Astronomical, Uses of the Opera-Glass, the Field-Glass and the Telescope
This book has been made in the hope that it will prove of service. It is, in a sense, but one effort more to help those who are without technical equipment to claim through the unaided eyes, or through simple optical instruments, their heritage in the things of the sky. And yet the book would not have been undertaken but for the conviction that it represents certain new and useful departures in scope and method. For a fuller state ment of these I must refer to the introductory pages.
