Here is an Astronomy book I have owned for quite sometime, but has never been read.  The second photo should be self explanatory, lol.

A little bit battered, but this my favourite of all my astronomy books.  Antonín Rükl knew his stuff.

Yes, one of my favourites also, and great guide indeed. It only has slightly less content than its larger sibling The Moon, also by Rukl.

Todays additions to my collection...

I use to have huge collection of magazines thanks primarily to Keiron McGrath of SCSastro.

As a dealer he would get a couple of copies of all the Astro mags he advertised in and would give me a copy, they ended up overwhelming my bookcase in size and weight! and eventually got distributed to a friends daughter and the recycling center.

These are all I have currently, an collection of the Voyage through the universe, which was chucked in a skip! and PMs book on exploring the night sky with binoculars, the only book I actually paid for!
I like free you see.

Here's a size comparison of Rukl's " Moon Mars and Venus " and " Atlas of the Moon ". The latter has just a little more information listed than the former, and is a bit easier to read with the larger print.
