One of the more intimate accounts from the Space Race I've read. This book tells the story of the Apollo 8 mission to the moon (my favorite!). Rather than focusing solely on the science involved, we follow the story of the men flying as well as their families. Even though I've heard many of the stories told in other books, there's always something different/new to discover as well as being reminded of bits and pieces I've forgotten over time. Very enjoyable and I would recommend this over others if you're more interested in the human aspect of the mission rather than the technicalities.
