About
A unique look at the successful - though nearly disastrous - Apollo 11 moon landing!
In a riveting narrative told from the astronauts' points of view, readers get to relive every step of Apollo 11's 1969 mission - from ignition to moon walk to splashdown - including the nail-biting (and relatively unknown) crucial moments when it came close to failure. And, setting this book apart, each step is linked to the innovations and discoveries from the past four centuries that made it possible. It's a fascinating new perspective on an epic journey - and how stem set it in motion!
Readers better fasten their seat belts, they're in for the ride of a lifetime!
