The Urban Astronomer's Guide: A Walking Tour of the Cosmos for City Sky Watchers - The Patrick Moore Practical Astronomy Series
Rod Mollise
This book covers the "why," "how," and "what" of astronomy under light-polluted skies. The prospective city-based observer is told why to observe from home (there are hundreds of spectacular objects to be seen from the average urban site), how to observe the city sky (telescopes, accessories, and moderns techniques), and what to observe.
