Synopsis
Almost every serious amateur astronomer knows the benefit of having a fixed observatory of some sort - it saves a vast amount of time and effort during every observing session - and this book provides the necessary help. More Small Astronomical Observatories details the methods and techniques employed by non-professional astronomers from all over the world, providing a wonderful resource for anyone wishing to build a small observatory of almost any kind. It's a fun read, too.

Review
"A repository of ideas and experience which will be invaluable to anyone comtemplating building their own observatory." -- The Observatory, Vol. 122, Iss. 1174, 2003
"This book is essential reading for observatory builders - buy it." -- Journal of the British Astronomical Association, Vol. 113, Issue 1, 2003
From the Back Cover
A permanent building for any small astronomical telescope is a great asset. Comfort, ease of use and above all being able to spend time actually observing instead of setting up the telescope mean that most amateur astronomers dream of having a fixed site.
The second collection of- mostly amateur- observatories for small telescopes provides yet more ideas along with a wealth of practical information for anyone thinking of building an observatory.
