"Celebrates a bold era when voyaging beyond the Earth was deemed crucial to national security and pride." - The Wall Street Journal Restoring the drama, majesty, and sheer improbability of an American triumph, this is award-winning historian Craig Nelson's definitive and thrilling story of man's first trip to the moon.
