Abstract

This online book contains the proceedings of a meeting held at Michigan State University to celebrate the career and contributions of Horace A Smith. The meeting focused on the areas of astronomy which Horace worked on over the years and featured talks on RR Lyrae, Cepheids, and other variable stars. In addition to the direct links to the arXiv articles, I have included a link to download the entire book for free.
