Here is what people are saying about the The Backyard Astronomer's Guide
5 Star Rating  "Best beginners astronomy book"2009-11-01
- Reviewed By User: ASEB4OTLFYK0C
This is a great book for those interested in visual astronomy with a telescope. Probably my favorite for beginners. Has excellent tips on what kind of scope to get and how to find objects to view.

Very easy to read. A must read for anyone interested in a telescope or anyone who as recently obtained one.
 
5 Star Rating  "Must-Have Volume for your Astronomy Library"2009-09-14
- Reviewed By User: A3KYA26RJGRAWE
Terry Dickenson is a force of nature when it comes to astronomy literature. His writings are prolific and polished, without ever seeming to be ponderous or pretentious. I've owned a first edition copy of TBAG (the white cover version) for years, and had heard that this newer version had quite a bit of material added and updated to reflect changes in technology.

Boy, they just weren't kidding! I'd estimate the Third Edition is 1/3 again as large as the original! While it comes packed with information and images, Terry keeps it all very approachable with his writing style. If you're just getting into the hobby, before you consider buying a telescope, get this volume as well as Dickenson's other great volume, Nightwatch: A Practical Guide to Viewing the Universe [NIGHTWATCH 4/E]. They both have great sections on helping you decide on which scopes are best suited to you and your lifestyle.

The Backyard Astronomer's Guide is one substantial volume, both in terms of the data it contains, as well as its sheer physicality...it's a true "coffee-table" book that visitors will find themselves thumbing through just for the vibrant images (many of which were captured by Dickenson himself, as he's become quite an accomplished astrophotographer.) If there was one book that could rightly be called "the amateur astronomer's bible", then this one would be it.

Once you start reading you will not be able to put it down. Great information and the book gives you the basic to get started.
 
5 Star Rating  "Backyard Astronomer's Guide"2009-03-10

In my opinion, this is the best book available for amateur astronomers. The authors are very candid in their reviews of equipment and their advice is excellent.
 
4 Star Rating  "Aterrific book for beginners as well as experienced die hards"2009-01-20
- Reviewed By User: A3TR36F1CYLO4R
There are good things and some not so good I have a copy of the first edition published in 1991,so I compared the two.and discovered that the colored digital images and the star charts opposite each photo were not as easy to read as the standard photos and charts were in the 1991 edition. The conventional photoography showed the bright stars that outline the constelations much moe clearly. I could barely find them in the digital pictures. However, the chapter on astrophotography was superp and the astrophotos were superb. I would rate the book a must have for anyone interested in telescopes binoculars and astrophotography.
 
5 Star Rating  "Best Book There Is"2008-12-16
- Reviewed By User: AOJQWIUDNUBAY
This is the most complete book for amatuer astronomers. I have read many good books on the subject and have a decent library but The Backyard Astronomer takes first place. Many interesting facts and bits of information are found nowhere else besides the complete knowledge on the subject and its equipment.
