Bright and Dark Nebulae : A Pocket Field Guide

Here the reader will find the first extensive listing of bright and dark nebulae for the entire sky in one easy to use resource.

The author will take the reader on an observer friendly tour of the night sky in easy to handle amounts, divided into the well known constellations that will allow observers the opportunity to become acquainted with each object discussed.

One of the revelations provided is that any telescope will work in this effort as long as the observer is able to obtain a significantly dark observing site.

Small rich field telescopes work better on the many large faint objects that are discussed, while larger telescopes can then apply their light gathering abilities on the smaller faint objects that are discussed. One of the advantages of the book is that the observer will gain the all important knowledge of how to apply instrumentation to gain the best views of each object they wish to see, since the ultimate goal of the present work is to help each observer to be able to see each of these formidable bright and dark nebulae for themselves.
