H. A. Ray wrote a book entitled "The Stars: A New Way To See Them," which included a convenient table showing what constellation each visible planet could be seen in, at about the first of every month, across a number of years. But his planetary table in that book ends with the year 2006, and I wish I had a continuation. And everything I've found on the internet is either more complicated than I'd like to have ... like telling how to calculate the coordinates myself ... or is otherwise inconvenient ... like maybe giving a method for finding the precise location of a given planet at a given time, or is inconvenient in some other way, for the simple stargazer. Does anyone know of a table that's easy to read and essentially just a continuation of H. A. Ray's?

This may be part of your answer. Sky and Telescope has a free sky chart that plots planetary positions etc for locations and dates you choose.
