EDITORIAL INFORMATION

Patrick Moore's Caldwell Catalogue added 109 objects to those in Messier's catalogue, providing some fascinating new deep-sky challenges for amateur astronomers. It includes all manner of planetary nebulae, clusters, bright and dark nebulae, galaxies, Wolf-Rayet stars, T Tauri stars, Blue Stragglers, X-ray objects, Fliers and LINERS. This complete guide to the Caldwell objects was written for practical observers. For each of the 109 deep-sky objects there is a modern photographic or CCD image, a database of properties, a finder chart, star-hopping information where appropiate, observational guidance, and a technical description based on some of the latest research papers. A fold-out all-sky map shows the location of all the Caldwell objects in the sky. As a practical observer, and regardless of wether your are using binoculars or a large telescope, this book is all you will need to meet the challenge of Observing the Caldwell Objects.
