Review: Good size - This book might be small for some people but for me, it’s perfect size to read, to bring, fits my bags. Lots of informations in it. Lots of pics in it. Well organized contents!
Review: For the starter moongazer - Yes, there are better, bigger and by far more expensive books out there. Yes, if you look on forums they'll probably advise well established big tomes. But I just started with astronomy and was looking for a book that would introduce me to lunar observing without making things too complicated. This one is well written, won't cost you an arm and a leg and the information offered can keep you busy for a long time, before you'll longer for a deeper approach. I like the format, there're plenty of sections of the moon, each with the prominents craters and features to see. It's agile, it's complete and still light. Nice grab'n go. Good piece of work from this author.
