Final Countdown: NASA and the End of the Space Shuttle Program

I have read a scant few books about the space program which is comewhat surprising because of my love for history as well as science fiction. Anyway I found this book at the local library after hearing the author talk on C-SPAN's Book TV.

The book covers the history of the space shuttle program which was so much more dangerous then any of us were aware of. The book which is written in a fast paced manner concludes with some information regarding NASA's future plans with the Orion project to go back to the moon and onward to Mars.
