Many midrange and high end telescopes come on equatorial mounts. These mounts are fantastic for tracking celestial objects. Someone who wanted to take pictures of objects in the night sky might even say they are required for all but the most basic astrophotography. The problem is that they can also be unintuitive and require some knowledge to use.
Until now, in order to obtain all the knowledge needed to leverage an equatorial mount to its full potential you would have had to compile information from a variety of sources and attempt to mesh them together. The frustration this could instill might, and indeed has, caused some potential amateur astronomers to give up and pursue other hobbies.
With this book you can now assemble, set up, adjust and use your equatorial mount with confidence. Regardless of the mount’s age or manufacturer you can be sure you will not only know how to use it, but also understand why it is the way it is.
If you have ever struggled to figure out how to use an equatorial telescope mount, this is the book you always wished you had.
Getting Started Using an Equatorial Telescope Mount Everything you need to know for astrophotography or visual use Allan Hall
I bought this book this morning, and I have already finished reading it. Two things are true about this book:1) It is probably worth far more than the $4.99 I paid, (I expect you'll agree, even if you heavily discount the cost of your own frustration); and
2) It was certainly worth the time I spent reading it. (That modest investment in time will pay dividends every night I set up and use my scope.)
I understood, from a practical point of view, what polar alignment of an equatorial telescope was for, but I found it more than a little daunting to actually do. This book has taken all the mystery out of it, and provides innumerable tips and techniques for making it easier, faster, and more effective. If you aren't already an old hand at setting up your scope in the field, this book is a must, I think.
Not every procedure he covers matches the mount that I own, but the concepts are clear and clearly explained so the transfer of the concepts to my own mount is a trivial process.

Getting Started Using an Equatorial Telescope Mount Everything you need to know for astrophotography or visual use Allan Hall Reviews
A little primitive but a good start to understanding equatorial mounts
This is an excellent introduction to the equatorial telescope. I have learned a few points from Allan Hall's book and will use it as reference in the future
Uses clear language and logic to explain the basic concepts of EQ alignment. Satisfied with the edition. Good job.
It wasn't a great book. It was hard to follow, and didn't really go beyond the basics. The author has other books, I may try one of those.
This book was very useful to me. I, embarrassingly, had a long-term equatorial mount and never understood how to properly utilize it. I recently purchased a new mount with Go-To electronics so wanted to learn how best to use it. Simply written and could have used a bit of better editing/proofing but a good beginners reference.
I am a novice with this type of telescope, so I have much to learn if I 'm going to be able to set up, use and take down this instrument correctly and competently without taking observing time away from our club members. This is just what I need as a true beginner.
I had no experience with equatorial mount.
This book really helps.
The author understand the unfamiliarity with the mount of the newbies.
This is 2nd purchase from this author.
(1st book was budget astrography.)
Both are kindle edition and had very accessible price.
Gave it a shot and both were good.
It read easy and explanation is very kind for newbie.
(Actually, my mother tongue is not English but reads easy. I mean that easy.)
Details and tips show the author have deep experience.
Definitely recommended.
