David & Charles, Ltd.

This is a kit for everyone who has ever looked into the night sky and wondered what the names of the constellations were. The interactive kit contains two wiro-bound books, a planisphere and a red flashlight, for reading your star maps when out in the field. The "Star Guide" is your complete guide to astronomy - from studying the heavens to the ancient naming of the constellations to galaxies and the solar system. "Mapping the Skies" concentrates more specifically on star spotting and takes the reader through month-by-month, explaining which stars you will be able to see at a particular time of the year. Accompanied by clear star maps, the book shows exactly what you will see, depending on the time you are looking and the direction you are looking in.
