Basic Optics and Optical Instruments: Revised Edition Revised Edition

Great simple explanation of light and basic optical instruments. Good for someone that wants to know how scopes work, not someone going for a Phd in physics.The only reason I gave 4 stars is that book is written as a US Navy course, so there is much talk of the navy and naval instruments that many people will find no use for.

Lots of information, fun for the collector of war surplus binoculars and telescopes. Can't beat the price, and hard to find much of this anywhere else.

The book contained the info i was looking for. There is great maths detail in most of the content, also helpful.
