This book contains a collection of beautiful photographs taken by American astronauts. These photos are accompanied by comments from the astronauts and others, which help give unique perspectives on the photos, their selection in the book, and the background of the missions. I really enjoy the selection of photos in the book, some of which were quite new to me, and highly recommend this lovely coffee table book for people interested in the space program.
Sixteen of America's most celebrated astronauts present more than 100 of their own personal photographs taken in spaceflight. Their personal reminiscences provide a unique oral history. First to serial Life.
