"Let it be said at once that his book is an outstanding success.... Immaculately researched and packed with detail, but written in a way that will appeal to readers of all kinds.... This is an important book, and should be in every scientific library.�--Sir Patrick Moore, London Times Educational Supplement |
�A fine authorized biography brimming with groundbreaking research, fresh anecdotes and fair-minded analysis. . . . Hansen should be commended for decoding the enigmatic Armstrong: a space hero short on words but sky-high on Midwestern integrity.�--Douglas Brinkley, The New York Times Book Review |
�[Hansen�s] mastery of detail is put to splendid use. The narrative of the moon mission is crisp and dramatic, the science clear. He deftly takes us back into those few days of global fascination with the adventure of the three distant voyagers, and the tense uncertainty about how it would turn out. The moon landing is old mental furniture for everyone of Baby Boom age and older�.I finished Hansen's Apollo story with a wholly fresh sense of awe at the magnitude of NASA's achievement�. a compelling and nuanced portrait of the astronaut�. to understand Armstrong on his own terms is to see a large truth of our time.��James Tobin, Chicago Tribune |
