'The Night Sky' by David Chandler, Planisphere.

I want to buy a planisphere and this seems to be a good one but I'm having trouble finding it on a UK website, does anyone know where I can get this?

Or if you have a better recommendation I'd love to hear.

Also I'd like a book to acompany it, one that fills in the blanks between the stars shown on the chart.

I have a Collins planisphere bought from WH Smith together with a useful gazette which i have cut up and laminated so I can take the relevant sections with me. Phillips do a similar thing. Try WH Smiths or Ottakars book store.

Thanks for the replies guys, I think I'm gonna get the phillips one, because its the easiest one to find on the net and looks like it'll do the job.
I'll have a look at the books tomorrow though, I'm going to bed!
