Space for Dark Skies by Howard L G Parkin BSC. BEd. FRAS

Howard Parkin, well-known in Isle of Man astronomical circles, presents here a lifetime of enthralling work. Beginning with an interest in astronomy as a small child the author has developed his knowledge and understanding to a level where he now rubs shoulders with many of the most famous astronauts and stargazers of our time.

This book acts as both a memoir and a tutorial guide and will be indispensable to anyone who studies the heavens from the Isle of Man and beyond, whether as an interested amateur or a dedicated professional, as the author generously shares his knowledge and experience.
