| Summary, etc. |
"Chasing Venus recounts the extraordinary expeditions that set off on a race around the world to observe the transits, and the triumphs and misfortunes that befell them. Overcoming enormous obstacles to make their observations, these astronomers were pioneers: helping to discover new lands, animals and plant species, and to map the world as we know it today."--P. [2] of cover. |
