Summary:
'Here is a rare perspective on a story we only thought we knew. For Apollo 11, the first moon landing, is a story that belongs to many, not just the few and favous. Gathering direct quotes from some of these folks who worked behind the scenes, and culling NASA transcripts, national archives, and stunning photos from Apollo 11, the author captures not only the sheer magnitude of this feat but also the dedication, ingenuity, and perseverance of the massive team that worked to first put man on that great gray rock in the sky"--Back cover.
