(IAAC) Fwd: Binary Stars Charts
This is forwarded from a local astronomy-club email list... I
thought it might be of interest to multiple-star enthusiasts.
Mike, how useful have you found these charts? How do you think
you would rate this book for deep-sky observers in particular?
BTW, also note that the Webb Society has a new publication on
this subject as well, which I have not gotten to see yet:

Clear skies,

Last Friday night at VMP there was some interest in a new double star chart I
was using. This chart is formatted like the flip-book telrad charts for Messiers
and the "Overlooked Objects" telrad charts, and in fact is from the same folks.
There are a few obvious entries like Alberio and the double double, but by and
large it's a useful thing to have, and worth the $19.95. I'll bring it to the
business meeting if anyone wants to take a look.
I got it from Anacortes; the URL is

Their 800 number is (800) 850-2001
