On Board The Pensacola: The Eclipse Expedition To The West Coast Of Africa is a non-fiction book written by Albert Bergman.

The expedition was led by David Todd, a renowned astronomer, and the group traveled on the USS Pensacola. The book provides a detailed account of the journey, including the challenges faced by the crew and the scientific team, as well as the observations made during the eclipse.
