Historia4 out of 5 stars 72
In the scorching summer of 1878, with the Gilded Age in its infancy, three tenacious and brilliant scientists raced to Wyoming and Colorado to observe a rare total solar eclipse. One sought to discover a new planet. Another - an adventuresome female astronomer - fought to prove that science was not anathema to femininity. And a young megalomaniacal inventor, with the tabloid press fast on his heels, sought to test his scientific bona fides and light the world through his revelations.

Don't listen to Jonathan Yen!

What would have made American Eclipse better?
A reader who simply read the book, rather than someone who dramatized every word, so much so that I couldn't stand to listen to it. Just tell the tale!!
What did you like best about this story?
Great idea for a book. Hope to read it some time.
What didn’t you like about Jonathan Yen’s performance?
Too dramatic and inflected. Just read the thing!! The inflections were so distracting I couldn't hear the story, and avoided it.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
Great book, good idea for a book.
