A Spectroscopic Atlas of Bright Stars, Fachbücher von Jack Martin

From the reviews:"Published by Springer as part of the Astronomer's Pocket Field Guide series. ... this new series is to 'provide succinct, targeted information for practical observers.' and in this regard Jack's book fits the bill. In 200 pages it covers the subject very well. ... This Atlas provides a wealth of data for the beginner in spectroscopy and provides useful comparison spectra for a whole range of stars which are easily visible in the northern hemisphere." (Ken Harrison, Federation of Astronomical Societies, Vol. 93, Spring, 2010)"The author has spent many years obtaining the spectra of about 70 of the apparently brightest stars in the Northern Hemisphere, using a 12 inch Dobsonian, a Rainbow Optics transmission grating and a photographic camera using black and white film. ... it will be useful to teachers at schools or colleges who would like their students to do some elementary astronomical spectroscopy. The combination of finder charts and spectra for the brightest stars makes it a handy reference for such a purpose." (E. Norman Walker, Astronomy Now, August, 2010)"This pocket guide is a noble attempt to introduce practical stellar spectroscopy into backyard star-gazing. Imaging the spectra of bright stars is a hobby which Martin has pursued for many years, and is now offering to share with those who could easily follow ... . he devotes a few pages to history and to scientific and technical explanation, with the rest of the book given over to the Atlas itself, displaying his own spectra of 72 stars."
