This catalog brings lists of deep sky objects up to the 20th century. The aurthor, familiar to "Sky and Telescope" magazine readers, has brought together old lists and updated the descriptions to be accurate and consistent. The author mentions that there are 13226 objects in all and that explains why the table occupies most of the pages of the 273 page book.

The NGC catalogue is quite popular with dedicated deep sky observers. (
