Summary: What an era!
Comment: As I mentioned in my review of the Apollo 11 book in this series, I bought this for the CD-ROM. The video documentary is excellent. It even features footage of the old tracking stations at Muchea and Woomera in Australia.

This was a great moment in the 'space race' and it fascinating to flick through the drawing and plans. The debriefing is also interesting...what were those fireflys?

Well worth your investment.

Summary: Key reference to a key mission
Comment: From the climax of the manned spaceflight program I go to the beginning, and quite a change it is. The heart of this collection are a series of reports compiled about every aspect of John Glenn's brief but historic flight, covering the whole thing in excrutiating detail-after all, no one had done anything like this before. (Gene Kranz is coauthor of one of them.) It even includes a transcript of all the air-to-ground communications throughout the entire mission, not something that could be done very easily for Apollo. Another key reference book for the true spaceophile.

Rating: 5
Summary: fantastic
Comment: The book and CD are fantastic, especially at such a modest price. The CD worked for me without any hassle at all (I have a fairly recent Win98 SE installation, with nothing fancy.) The 60 minutes of mpeg on the CD are worth the price, alone. Reading Glen's mission report was really fascinating -- I've never seen that before. I'd have expected something a lot more formal and stilted, but he's always been a nice straight guy.
