'... there is no better guide than Stephen O'Meara's book. For each object photograph, a finder chart, basic data and a quote from Messier's accounts are provided, with a discussion of what is seen through small telescopes, and some history of telescopic ideas. This is not a treatise on the astrophysics of Messier object, but an observer's guide, a worthy and superior successor to previous attempts'. Stephen P. Maran, Nature
'... impressive ... contains careful descriptions of each object, finder maps, telescopic drawings, and photographs. The text is spirited and informed, and the result is a must-have on the bookshelf of deep-sky enthusiasts.' Astronomy Magazine
'A great value for money book which will delight any keen deep space watcher.' Gnomon
'The Messier Objects is packed with useful advice, historical facts, and interesting anecdotes.' Robert Argyle, The Observatory
' ... this is an excellent book and it deserves a place on the bookshelf of both the novice and experienced amateur astronomer.' The Journal of the British Astronomical Association
'Steve O'Meara says the purpose of the book is to provide new and experienced observers with a fresh perspective on the Messier objects. He has succeeded brilliantly.' Astronomy & Space
' ... to be recommended to any serious backyard astronomer.' A. D. Andrews, Irish Astronomical Journal
'All in all, the book lives up to the author's claim about offering a new perspective and is thoroughly up to date and very readable book on the subject. I feel that it offers all deep sky observers something. Even if you have seen all the Messier Objects - and I suspect most of us take them rather for granted - it will inspire you to go out and have another look at them (it has me). Highly recommended.' Faith Jordan, Webb Society Quarterly Journal
'The book is well printed on heavy paper and both drawings and most of the photographs appear to have reproduced well. ... I think this is an excellent book and a worthy replacement for The Messier Album and deserves a place on the bookshelf of both the novice and experienced amateur astronomer.' Owen Brazell, Webb Society Quarterly Journal
'I thoroughly enjoyed this book.' Ronald Morales, Webb Society Quarterly Journal
The Messier Guide for the modern age. Exquisite and highly detailed drawings made from the darkest skies on Earth are combined with a thoroughly modern text in this ultimate field guide to the finest galaxies, clusters and nebulae.
