If you grew up in the 60`s there would have been many things that you wanted to know , but easy info was just not accessible . Apollo is "cool" again + even kids seem to be inquisitive about Armstrong`s "one small step". Here it all is , but now also with a fascinating CD (which all the companion books do too). Although the book is basically a reprint of contemporary NASA papers it is , nonetheless , a mine of info . Good cut-aways + diagrams are given throughout . Everyone will find some "I didn`t know that!" facts + the whole book goes to underline the sheer complexity , size + daring of this the publically perceived (if not scientific or technical) zenith of Project Apollo. If you buy this one , you`ll want the others too !
