Moongazing: Beginner’s guide to exploring the Moon

A slim book but pitched at a good level for beginners but enough detail for those wanting to go deeper with detailed maps for lunar astronomers. Well worth its low price.

Engrossing book, full of facts and ideas for studying the moon and also taking pictures.

Very detailed and up to date. No problems with the book or supplier. If your interested in the Moon, I would recommend this book.

Nothing to dislike,very informative.

Nice book self explanatory’

Incredible book! I love it so much, and will definitely be visiting it again sometime! Walks you through the moon herself, and how she came to be. Detailed imagery of her beautiful surface, labelled and notated to a T. Teaches you about how every curve, crevice, and cluster was formed; and how humanity, since the dawn of time, have been adoring her in any way they can. Then, walks you through equipment, their importance, and THEIR history too. All clearly spoken, told by a truly passionate narrator. At no point did I feel out of my depth, it was truly explained with so much love and care, I understood every word! Have put several other works of this author in my “to buy” list, and I cannot wait to do so too!

A gift for my granddaughter and she loves it. Very informative.

A great book for beginning your Moon tour.

This book might be small for some people but for me, it’s perfect size to read, to bring, fits my bags. Lots of informations in it. Lots of pics in it. Well organized contents!

Yes, there are better, bigger and by far more expensive books out there. Yes, if you look on forums they'll probably advise well established big tomes. But I just started with astronomy and was looking for a book that would introduce me to lunar observing without making things too complicated. This one is well written, won't cost you an arm and a leg and the information offered can keep you busy for a long time, before you'll longer for a deeper approach. I like the format, there're plenty of sections of the moon, each with the prominents craters and features to see. It's agile, it's complete and still light. Nice grab'n go. Good piece of work from this author.

Excellent Book for the Beginner and great price and first class service from Amazon

As a dedicated Moon observer, I own dozens of books about the Moon. My impression of this book is that it is an excellent primer for beginners as well as a good guide for experienced recreational astronomers. It is a concise 96 pages with relevant information necessary for enjoying the Moon in all its glory. I particularly like the photos and illustrations the author chose for teaching you where to observe along with descriptions of what you will see through your telescope. All major and minor surface features are discussed including craters, mountains, dry lava beds, valleys and more. Tom Kerss is an excellent writer and every page appears artistically and aesthetically well designed. In summary, this is nice Moon book worthy of a spot in your home library. See my photos for an example of what’s inside.

Lot of information and illustrations of our satellite. Very detailed maps. Very useful for observations and astrophotography.
