This classic autobiography of one of the 20th century's foremost amateur astronomers was originally published by Harper & Row in 1965. In his new foreword, Sky & Telescope contributing editor David H. Levy points out that although many books describe how to watch the sky, " Starlight Nights tells us why." The book is illustrated with Peltier family photographs. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
