"...an excellent four-book series telling the history of human space travel as experienced by four famous astronauts. . . .The books are absolutely packed with information, and yet the stories are told with drama. Sidebars and pull-quotes contain even more facts. . . .These are not complete biographies of the four astronauts, but rather use the astronauts as characters in human exploration history to engage readers in the story. The device works very well."
