Please note: This book is written in German!The Complete Guide to the European Total Eclipses on 12 August 2026 & 2 August 2027
Two spectacular celestial events are heading our way – and you'll want to be ready! On 12 August 2026, a total solar eclipse will plunge the skies over Spain, Iceland and Greenland into darkness; then, just a year later on 2 August 2027, the next extraordinary spectacle unfolds over southern Spain and North Africa.
Even beyond the path of totality, there's plenty to see: a partial solar eclipse will be visible across much of Europe – with the UK, for example, enjoying an impressive coverage of around 90% in 2026, and still around 40% in 2027.
This authoritative guide by NASA astrophysicist Fred Espenak – better known as "Mr. Eclipse" – and Patricia Totten Espenak gives you everything you need to make the most of both events:
The science & history of solar eclipses
Fascinating facts the whole family will enjoy
