Re: [ATM] Amateur Telescope Makers Books

["Ellen Mackenzie" <mackenzieconsulting@sympatico.ca>]

I am surprised when there was no rebuttal when Gary said there was no
three volumes of the ATM books published by Scientific American and edited
by Ingalls. These books are classics although they should be properly
named the Amateur Astronomers Hand books. A fourth book is definitely
needed to cover the advances made since the set's publication in 1963, but
the original set has so much information I feel it is a "must have" for
the beginning telescope maker.
