Project Gutenberg 2007-03-09 Public domain in the USA. 645 Olcott, William Tyler 1873 1936 A Field Book of the Stars Produced by Audrey Longhurst, Christine D. and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "A Field Book of the Stars" by William Tyler Olcott is a practical guide on astronomy, likely written in the early 20th century. The book serves as a field manual for amateur star-gazers, focusing on the identification of constellations visible in the Northern Hemisphere, particularly from the New England and Middle States. It aims to present the information in a simple and accessible way, thereby making stargazing an engaging and approachable pastime for readers. The beginning of the book introduces readers to the purpose of the manual, emphasizing the lack of familiarity most people have with constellations beyond a couple of notable examples. It outlines a straightforward approach to learning the constellations, presupposing some basic knowledge of commonly recognized stars. The initial sections describe the scheme of study and provide maps of the heavens aligned with different seasons, setting the stage for systematic observation of the stars and constellations, all while excluding complex technical jargon.
