Norton's Star Atlas and Reference Handbook, 20th Edition
This
completely redesigned, two-color landmark 20th edition

that has no match in the field.
Meticulously updated for accuracy, including new photographic
Mars and Moon maps, and new hands-on coverage of computer-guided
backyard telescopes, the hottest trend in amateur astronomy.
Norton's charts of vertical strips of the sky are the best
representations of what we observe in the night sky.
It's simply a classic household reference no home should be
without.
