APOLLO 11:THE INSIDE STORY (PB)

An authoritative account of Apollo 11, shedding light on the true drama behind the 1969 mission which saw Neil Armstrong become the first man to step on the surface of the moon. It tells the story in the words of those who took part - based around exclusive interviews with the key players - and puts the mission in the context of the wider space race from the days of the early rocket pioneers, also looking at the agonising drama of the Apollo 13 disaster and the eventual winding-up of the Apollo program.
