Drawing on the knowledge of South African experts, this book offers stargazers insights into the night skies in the skies of southern hemisphere. It includes photographs, star charts, and graphics.

Many fieldguides and popular books on amateur astronomy have been written, but few are devoted entirely to the rich skies of the southern hemisphere. Now updated, ""Stars of the Southern Skies"" draws on the knowledge of South African experts to offer stargazers some unique insights into the night skies in their half of the world. Superb photographs, star charts, and graphics complement the text. This is a book for anybody who has ever gazed in wonder at the glory of a star-filled sky, a must for all amateur astronomers, and an interesting addition to the shelves of the experts.

Mary Fitzgerald is a former Director of the Planetarium, Univers ity of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg.
