Here are some of mine.  All good; Giles Sparrow's Constellations is excellent.

The Cambridge Star Atlas should also be there - paid for on Ebay 10 days ago, but hasn't arrived yet!

And "Turn Left" is coming on my birthday in June.  I hope.

Forgot to include COSMOS - Infographic Book of Space - packed with useful info in easily digested pictorial form.

This is my little collection, tucked away in a corner of a cabinet in the lounge. I don't read them as much as I should.

David Levy's Skywatching was an early favourite of mine, I just enjoyed the style and it caught my imagination. It taught me how to find M57, M13 etc

I've literally just picked up these four for a little over a fiver, they look fascinating. One is from 1931, another from 1944 and  Gravitation was originally published in 1834 so it will be interesting to see just how much was known back then.

I've been collecting for over fifty years, oldest book around 1800... full set of Sky&Telescope and many many more.

Before "downsizing" a few years ago we had over 40 metres of bookshelf????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately the cull also meant some ol' friends had to go.....

(My wife and I now have a pact - ten books must go for every new book of the shelf. - She cheats and buys ebooks!)
