Which books?

Hi all

I was wondering if anyone (Sam Wormley maybe?) could help me? I am looking
for fairly decent Amateur Astronomy books to complement my renewed interest
in Astronomy...
Many years ago when in my teens I was really into Astronomy.......I used to
use my pathetic refractor most winter nights (whilst dreaming of a
SCT).......did some astrophotography with an SLR......visited places like
Herstmonceux and even started a joint degree in Astronomy....
I had some good books on Astronomy..... IIRC by people like Ian Ridpath and
Wil Tirion, and a copy of Larousse Encyclopedia (still got that one
somewhere).......unfortunately 20 years on they are gone.........
I have pc programs like Redshift and Stellarium and am pretty comfortable
with eyeball navigaton of major constellations, bright stars and objects.
But its always nice to have maps and coords of the fainter stuff and some
text about them.......

Thanks in advance!
