Description - Sky & Telescope's Pocket Sky Atlas Jumbo by Roger W. Sinnott

This book, a larger version of Sky & Telescope's Pocket Sky Atlas, offers a wonderfully detailed atlas that's handy to use in the field and at the telescope. Find your way around the heavens with detailed charts, easy-to-read labels, and a lay-flat spiral-bound design. The original Pocket Sky Atlas, introduced in 2006, has proven wildly popular for use with portable telescopes. This newly revised edition of the jumbo version covers the whole sky with the same 80 charts, magnified to 132 percent. AUTHOR: Roger W. Sinnott has been a contributing editor for Sky & Telescope since 1972. He is the author of the original Sky & Telescope's Pocket Sky Atlas, and co-authored the two-volume Sky Catalogue 2000.0. He collaborated with Michael Perryman of the European Space Agency on the Millennium Star Atlas, in 1997, the most detailed star atlas ever printed. Minor planet 3706 Sinnott is named in Roger's honour.
