The Hundred Greatest Stars Hardcover - 2002

by James B. Kaler


From the publisher

While there are guides to the visible sky, this is the first book to encompass the most important stars known in the universe at a level accessible to the layperson. The noted astronomer James Kaler takes us on a tour of the 100 most interesting stars, describing their characteristics and importance in words and vivid pictures.

First line

Aside from the constellations of the Zodiac, one modern figure, Crux, the Southern Cross, is perhaps the most famed.
