A fabulous resource for the two upcoming eclipses! Clear explanations of how and why solar and lunar eclipses occur and how they benefit researchers and our understanding of the universe. Great for n on-the-go resource with solar glasses provided to boot! The jargon section and memory book note pages are a nice feature to turn this book into a family keepsake, reference book, and talking piece. Get you copy before they sell out!

Pam Hine is a solid introductory guide to eclipse chasing. The book explains what an eclipse is, the different types, and when and where you can see them. Mainly focused on 4/08/2024, it includes details for many viewing locations. I know much of this info can be found on the web, but having it in book form was really convenient, especially when I was in locations with poor or no wifi. This book is not for seasoned eclipse chasers but worked for a newbie like me. Thanks to Pam Hine, the publisher, and NetGalley for the ARC.
This was a very informative guide the the eclipses! It gave good high level and practical information for viewing, as well as some more background information for folks wanting to fully understand what they're seeing and how eclipses work. As someone who has studied a good bit of astronomy, a lot of this was repeat information for me, but it's definitely a good book for the average eclipse viewer.
