The Astronomers Royal by Emily Winterburn

Capturing the essence of often obsessive and extremely dedicated individuals, this lively book traces the professional and private lives of the Astronomers Royal, a role created by Charles II in 1675. Since the first, John Flamsteed, there have been 14 of them, each of whom has contributed significantly to science's understanding of stars, time, and space.
