How to Build an Astronomical Telescope
"The process is described in great detail so that the making of the mirror is an enjoyable and relaxing task. Simple test methods are described so that you do not over grind the mirror but achieve the correct shape. How to simply mount the mirror in a tube is then covered in detail. The result will be a working astronomical telescope capable of viewing the Heavens. Only everyday tools are required throughout"--Page [4 of cover].

In Small Astronomical Observatories, Patrick Moore has collected descriptions of amateur and small professional observatories currently in use in Europe and America, showing how many astronomers have built their own observatory, often with effective and sometimes extraordinary improvisations to reduce the cost. There is a photograph of each, along with details of its construction and a foreword written by Patrick Moore. In addition to providing a fascinating study for its own sake, Small Astronomical Observatories offers a unique fund of ideas and practical details for anyone who wants to build an amateur or small professional observatory.
