Very detailed, exhaustive. Gets the novice (me) off the starting block and into the action. A book can only do so much, however. You have to start visiting the stores and websites yourself. I appreciate all the little hints provided, such as a homemade anti-fogging device and a focusing lever. Harrington does his best to help beginners avoid or solve all the little problems that come an amateur astronomer's way. I recommend it.
