Not only is this book an interesting read, it is also an observation guide.

Although astronomy fascinates me, I’ve never been aware that there have been any Yearbooks for astronomy. However, as this book was highlighted to me, I’m now intrigued.


The yearbook is aimed at ‘armchair’ astronomers and the active ‘back yard’ enthusiasts. With several diagrams, many brilliant photos and heaps of information about the heavens, this book would make a resourceful research book for those writing sci fi plus a general everyday guidebook for anybody interested in space.

The striking cover alone is worth getting this book – the rest is a beautiful bonus!

For the Love of Books

A very good resource and the accompanying diverse articles included were interesting and enlightening.

We are extremely fortunate to live on the wild North Norfolk Coast, where a two minte walk takes me away from any light pollution – earlier this month I was privileged to see Venus, Jupiter and Saturn lined up across the southern horizon, and this magnificent book will enable me to better understand what I’m looking at. Priceless!

Books Monthly

This is a well-written and very informative compilation, and is likely to be of interest to both professional and amateur astronomers alike. Some readers with a passing interest in ‘things in the sky’ may also find it of interest.
