As I have an unhealthy obsession with all things space
travel, I have read many of the recent books published about the space race in
the 1960’s. This book is a companion
book to a television series (which I unfortunately have not yet watched). This book had all of the relevant information
but was much duller than other books on the same subject. There is not the same sense of urgency and it
doesn’t quite capture the character of the major players in the space
race. I feel like that since this is a
companion book, that it may be better in physical form, with color pictures, and
such. Overall, it is definitely a good
primer on the birth of the space program and NASA but there are more
interesting books out there. I received a
digital ARC of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest
review.
