The Last Stargazers: The Enduring Story of Astronomy's Vanishing Explorers by Emily M. Levesque

3.0

This was an interesting book, but be aware it's written much more like a memoir than a history of the profession of astronomy.

The author focused a lot on her experience which mostly involves minor contributions in the form of a PhD. She sprinkles in anecdotal stories of predecessors in her profession, but it's not particularly systematic or vetted.
