Book excerpt: Originally published in 1877, Observational Astronomy is a guide to the theory and practice of amateur astronomy. The book covers topics such as the use of telescopes and other observation equipment, the measurement of celestial coordinates, and the identification of stars and constellations. The anonymous author, who identified himself only as a clergyman, drew from his own experience as an amateur astronomer to provide practical advice for beginners. This new edition, edited by J.T. Slugg, includes updates and clarifications to the original text, making it a valuable resource for modern amateur astronomers.
