Treasures by Stephen James OMeara
Hidden Treasurers
Stephen OMearas new and exciting observing guide spotlights an original
selection of 109 deep-sky objects that will appeal to sky-watchers
worldwide. His hidden treasures include a wonderful assortment of
galaxies, open clusters, planetary nebulae and more, all of which have
been carefully chosen based on their popularity and ease of observing.
None of these objects are included in either the Messier or the Caldwell
catalogs, and all are visible in a 4-inch telescope under dark skies.
Stunning photographs and beautiful drawings accompany detailed visual
descriptions of the objects, which include their rich histories and
astrophysical significance. The authors original finder charts are designed
to help observers get to their targets fast and efficiently.
Personal Review: Deep-Sky Companions: Hidden Treasures by
Stephen James OMeara

This book lists and describes objects in the sky which some people have
never seen unless they live under reasonably dark skies and own a small
telescope and/or good binoculars. Like the other two previous volumes,
The Messier Objects and The Caldwell Objects, it has the information on
each object all in one place. Plus there are many beautiful sketches, easy
to read charts, as well as black and white photographs to aid the observer.
The title is also bit more appealing than the two previous books, which may
attract more novices to read further and increase their knowledge of
astronomy. By all means get it if you love astronomy-- especially since now
at the time of this review Amazon offers it at over thirty dollars less than
the original price.
