I visited Palomar, and bought this book there, and read it. It is a fascinating book, I really got a sense of the great difficulty and achievement of building the 200" telescope. A must read for anyone interested in astronomy, telescopes, and history.

thanks Tom, I added that to the top of the page so it doesn't get lost. Looks like an interesting read so I'm glad that the thread is somewhat revived.
