Notes
Description
Beginning with fighter pilots in World War II, Maurer traces the origins of the Apollo program to a few exceptional soldiers, a Nazi engineer, and a young eager man who would become president. Packed with adventure, new stories about familiar people, and undeniable danger, Richard Maurer takes an unflinching look at a tumultuous time in American history, and presents a narrative on how the United States won the space race against Russia by landing a man on the Moon in 1969.
