The present century has been a disappointing one for comets, but
past centuries often featured spectacular, unforgettable comet
shows that dominated the night (and even daytime) sky for months:
comets that outshone Venus or even the Moon, whose spectacular
tails stretched more than halfway across the sky or were weirdly
split, and whose apparition was held responsible for everything
from wars to unusually good wine vintages. Published to coincide
with the first naked-eye appearance of Comet Hale-Bopp, perhaps our
own "comet of the century", this book is a guide to comet facts and
lore throughout history.
