Book excerpt: Excerpt from Astronomy for Schools and General Readers Aida - A celestial globe, twelve inches, or there abouts, in diameter, is most useful in. Illustrating and explaining many astronomical phenomena, and in finding the constellations and principal stars. Be sure that the globe has a horizontal ring about the middle. A Planisphere is a tolerable substitute for a globe, and much cheaper. A Star Lantern is also very convenient. A good star-map is important. A tele scope of any size, or even a good spy-glass or pair of opera-glasses, will add much interest to the study.
