Victorian Solar Eclipse History (Part 1 of 2)

Be sure to find Sarah's books on Amazon! https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/... In this video, author Sarah A. Chrisman talks about the history of eclipses, with special focus on eclipse study in the Victorian era (and how the wife of an Amherst astronomy professor not only helped the general public learn about eclipses, but also brought the poetry of Emily Dickinson into the light of day.) Meanwhile, Sarah's cats get into mischief.
