Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. First Edition, First Printing. A FIELD GUIDE TO THE CLASSIC DEEP-SKY OBJECTS. An extensively illustrated observing guide to the 109 galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters associated with Charles Messier's celebrated eighteenth-century catalogue. O'Meara combines practical observing instructions with historical background, finder charts, photographs, and his own detailed visual observations. FROM THE TELESCOPE TO THE PAGE. The principal section treats the Messier objects individually, with information for locating and observing each target and descriptions of what an amateur astronomer can expect to see through the eyepiece. Additional sections discuss Charles Messier and his catalogue, observing techniques, Messier marathons, objects Messier was unable to locate, and twenty notable non-Messier objects. PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS: Hardcover in illustrated dust jacket. 10.25 inches tall; 304 pages, including index. Illustrated throughout with astronomical photographs, detailed observational drawings, finder charts, diagrams, and maps. Includes a large two-page celestial chart locating the Messier objects.

Dust jacket shows only minor handling. Appears unread. AN OBSERVING CLASSIC FOR THE AMATEUR ASTRONOMER. Charles Messier compiled his catalogue primarily to distinguish persistent deep-sky objects from the comets he sought, yet those galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters became some of the most familiar targets in amateur astronomy. O'Meara approaches them from the perspective of an accomplished visual observer, emphasizing what can actually be found and perceived through a telescope rather than simply presenting astronomical data.
