Star Tales

Excellent service, as always.

If you love the stars, you will love this book! Charming collection of the mythic stories which accompany the constellations.

outstanding book... every stargazer must read it for the stories and myths surrounded our beautiful sky.

Having had severla other books by Ian Ridpath I had expected a somewhat more detailed book. This has really short vignettes of eacjh constellation and is perhaps rather suited to a beginner.

Ian gives a wonderful talk about the constellations on YouTube. I recommend it as well as his book. He as obviously been studying the history of constellations for quite some time. As a result, as is the case with all true experts, he strives to delight rather than impress the reader. All in all a wonderful collection of stores carrying with them twinklings of little known facts.
