The title of this book is "Safely to Earth: The Men and Women Who Brought the Astronauts Home." Based on the title and cover, I expected this book to tell the story of unrecognized people who worked in Mission Control on the reentry phase of flight, from Apollo to the Shuttle.
Yeah, that's not what this is.
This book is a general space history combined with the personal biography of Jack Clemons. This could have been so much better than it was. I felt like we never really got the story of show more anyone except Jack Clemons. I was quite disappointed. show less
