Mixed Deep Sky Objects?

Posted By Ron Rogers

Is anyone familiar with a list, or observing guidebook that emphasizes multiple and especially mixed deep sky objects like both a globular and a planetary visible in amateur size telescopes within the same 1 degree FOV ? I recall recently coming across a brief descriptive review of such a book, yet I cannot remember the exact title, or author, nor the magazine or website source. Is there such a book, or list?
