Hi Richard,
I hope your astronomy club is flourishing!
Here is an offer for your members.
You probably know of the annual Astronomical Calendar, which Guy Ottewell
started in a small way when Kohoutek's Comet loomed in 1973 and which has grown to be a book of 84 atlas-sized and richly illustrated pages, used by 20,000 in over 100 countries. The 2009 volume is even better, to meet the challenge of the UN's International Year of Astronomy (whose logo Astronomical Calendar 2009 is privileged to bear).
Our modern age of astronomy began in 1609, with Galileo's thrilling discoveries through his first telescope - as well as his friend Kepler's publication of the famous "three laws" of planetary motion in the same year. Guy's cover painting for Astronomical Calendar 2009, the extensive "cover painting story", and several other features scattered through the book, bring alive the events and revelations of those exciting and dangerous times.
You can see more about the contents of the Astronomical Calendar at
www.universalworkshop.com.
You will receive a 20% discount for an order of 5 or more copies of Astronomical Calendar 2009. There will still be a charge for shipping, but our standard shipping rate is economical. Just telephone, and mention promotion code CFS05. The offer expires on Dec. 31, 2008.
Sincerely
Tilly Lavenás
