Stargazing With A Telescope

Stargazing With A Telescope (2000) – Robin Scagell (Philips)

Ever looked up at the night sky and thought, “Which one’s Mars, and why does my telescope make everything look like fuzzy peas?” This classic from 2000 by Robin Scagell is your nostalgic guide to not pointing the wrong end of your scope at the moon. Packed with practical tips, star charts, and no-nonsense advice, it’s ideal for beginners and curious stargazers who aren’t quite ready for astrophysics—but are ready to find Saturn without crying.

Published by Philips, so it’s got that solid "educational gift from your nan" energy, and brought to you by Crappy Old Books, because great space wisdom doesn’t age—it just gets slightly yellowed pages and a faint smell of loft.

A charming, accessible, and slightly retro read that’s still surprisingly helpful... assuming you’ve got a telescope and a bit of patience.

Near new condition.
