Dedication

For Mom and Dad, who kindled my passion for eclipses as a child. Mom dashed across town to find a clear spot so that I could see my first eclipse in 1959; and my parents went to great lengths to make sure I saw my first total eclipse in 1963. For Wendee, who rekindled my passion for eclipses and who made the 1998 and 1999 eclipses cherished memories. And for Nannette, Mark, Summer, and all the eclipses in their future.
