PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS: Hardcover in illustrated dust jacket. 10.25 inches tall; 304 pages, including index. Illustrated throughout with astronomical photographs, detailed observational drawings, finder charts, diagrams, and maps. Includes a large two-page celestial chart locating the Messier objects.

Charles Messier compiled his catalogue primarily to distinguish persistent deep-sky objects from the comets he sought, yet those galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters became some of the most familiar targets in amateur astronomy. O'Meara approaches them from the perspective of an accomplished visual observer, emphasizing what can actually be found and perceived through a telescope rather than simply presenting astronomical data.
