Binocular Highlights by Gary Seronik. The LAS recommends spending time viewing objects with binoculars before committing to purchasing a telescope. This is a great introduction to binocular astronomy. And, as with the other books listed so far, this one is also by a Canadian! We have a copy of this book in the LAS library, as well as for sale from the ORO Kiosk.
