Rated 5 stars
A space age classic

This book was originally published in 1970 and, for 20 years hence, was the gold standard of books on manned spaceflight. It was written by Gene Farmer and Dora Jane Hamblin who were given unprecedented access to the Apollo program through the famous Life Magazine contract. The 400 page epic is a stylish, and highly detailed, account of the Apollo 11 experience which dwells not just around interviews with the Apollo 11 crew...

It's not rocket science, but it is about rocket science!!

While this is not the be all end all of astronaut books..it was written mostly by Life magazine, but with a great deal of attributed comments by the famous three. It is however one of the most all encompassing books about what goes into a spaceflight..I have read all the books, and this one is a happy blend of good background and enjoyable reading material about the lives and the stresses of the astronauts and their families...
