| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | Preface:<br/> <br/> The object which the Author and Publisher of this little work have proposed to themselves, has been the production, at a moderate price, of a useful and reliable guide to the amateur telescopist.<br/> <br/> Among the celestial phenomena described or figured in this treatise, by far the larger number may be profitably examined with small telescopes, and there are none which are beyond the range of a good 3-inch achromatic.<br/> <br/> The work also treats of the construction of telescopes, the nature and use of star-maps, and other subjects connected with the requirements of amateur observers. |

It discusses the construction of telescopes, the nature of star maps, and a variety of celestial phenomena that can be observed, particularly those amenable to smaller telescopes. The opening of the book provides an introduction to the telescope and its significance in astronomy, emphasizing its accessibility even for beginners. Proctor addresses common disappointments that new users face when first observing celestial bodies, explaining the importance of understanding the instrument's capabilities. He aims to empower novices with knowledge that will enhance their observational experience, thereby fostering a deeper appreciation for the wonders of the universe as seen through a telescope.
