The Field Guide to the 2023 and 2024 Solar Eclipses is your essential guide to these two upcoming North American eclipses. The Field Guide includes everything you need to know about the annular solar eclipse on October 14, 2023 and the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024. It will be most useful for planning your eclipse viewing experience, and includes detailed weather prospects. The Field Guide provides beautiful and detailed maps by Michael Zeiler of both eclipse paths at overview, regional, and detail scales with extensive commentary by Michael Bakich, retired senior editor of Astronomy Magazine.
