This is an extraordinary account of NASA's early successes and falures, with never before published photos, many revealing development of the astronaut team and early rocketry. It speaks also to public support following the loss of flight crews and goes on to examine critical oversights and poor management decisions as seen by the author, NASA's first civilian information officer for Project Mercury, the nation's pioneering effort to place a man in space.
