100 Things to See in the Night Sky, Expanded Edition

Have you ever looked into the night sky and wondered where a certain star or constellation was? This came into clear focus for me several years ago when I became stranded and lost in the Arizona wilderness at high altitude. See my “True Survival Adventure” at https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=38727967#editor/target=post;postID=4351858055115211106;onPublishedMenu=allposts;onClosedMenu=allposts;postNum=8;src=postname 

Once we were able to locate the North Star, we could chart a course back to safety the next morning.

But we don't need to be facing disaster in order to benefit from this updated book. The photographs are also fabulous, and the charts are informative.
