Destination Moon: The Apollo Missions in the Astronauts' Own Words Book

Destination Moon pairs magnificent, mind-boggling photos with the firsthand accounts of the Astronauts who were part of the Apollo Missions. The book takes the reader chronologically through the seventeen Apollo Missions- both their failures and amazing successes.
Vibrant, evocative photographs fill the pages, which directly connects the reader to the experiences of the Astronauts. The majority of these photos are in color and they show the splendor of the Apollo Mission‰Ûªs achievements. The pictures of space and the moon are stunningly beautiful, and not all of them are as well-known as the photo of Neil Armstrong and his first step on the moon. With the vibrant, majestic pictures, the reader is transported back to the missions with the Apollo Astronauts.
The book is written in a compelling way, and includes dialogue and interviews that came straight from NASA. The author, Rod Pyle, also incorporates brief biographies of each and every crew member that was part of the Apollo Missions. Quotes and short discussions from the astronauts‰Ûª missions are scattered throughout the pages of Destination Moon. As its title suggests, the book describes the journey to the Apollo Mission‰Ûªs ultimate goal: reaching the moon, but it also includes the Missions preceding and succeeding the successful Moon Missions.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading the gripping stories of the Astronauts‰Ûª challenges and experiences. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning more about the Apollo Missions.
