this book is a "must" for anyone interested in the space race. Author Neil Thompson gives a totally in-depth insight into the life and career of the "icy commander" throughout his formative years, military and NASA career, through MERCURY, GEMINI AND APOLLO, very well documented, this book puts you right "in there", as if you lived your life alongside Alan B shepard, the first American in space!! Anyone who has read any books about the other Mercury, Gemini and Apollo astronauts will find this a valuable addition to their collection, and will find it very difficult to put down once started. an excellent read and nicely illustrated. 10/10.
