Customer Review: As a person obsessed with the history of Project Apollo, I've always wished I had been a little older. That way, I may have experience the shear power of the Saturn 5, as well as the national pride behind the Apollo astronauts. Luckily, Apogee has provided us with a lot of the press materials and... more info
Customer Review: My book, Apollo 16, was sent with a torn back cover, taped with scotch tape, and the CD ROM that was supposed to be part of the book was not included with it. It may have been an oversight, but this is not what I would call a good quality used book.
Customer Review: This book, the first in a series of three volumes, was released to coincide with the 30th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission, and contains a great deal of information about the first landing on the moon. This book contains the press kit, pre and post mission reports and the transcript with... more info
Customer Review: Like virtually everyone else, I was completely blown away by this Apogee book, and wholeheartedly concur that the included DVD is well worth the price alone. I only wish one or more of the Apollo 11 astronauts themselves were engaged to provide a commentary sound track on the DVD. Afterall,... more info
Customer Review: If you're really into the history of space flight (as I am), then this is the first entry in a series that you will love. These aren't really for someone with a casual interest in the subject, but are primarily intended for the dedicated enthusiast who wants to learn more about the missions than can... more info
Customer Review: This Apogee Book/DVD combination is another great choice for the Apollo collector, especially at nearly 10 bucks off the list price. The DVD alone is worth the price! I agree with the other reviewer, Apogee should produce similar DVDs to go with all Apollo Mission Reports. The only nitpick on... more info
Customer Review: The X-15 is often overlooked as our first space plane. Some of the pilots who flew her, including Neil Armstrong, were conidered Astronauts because they flew over 50 miles high. The technology gained from this program was later used on the Space Shuttle. This book gets down to the nuts and... more info
Customer Review: Robert Godwin and Apogee Books have over the years compiled a variety NASA documents, press kits, crew interviews and the like, which recount the early days of the space race, focusing on the Apollo missions. This time, they have released the first volume of information dedicated in the second lunar... more info
Customer Review: Another great volume in the Apogee series on the Apollo Program. Apollo 14 followed the frightening Apollo 13 flight a year later. 14 had its moments of high anxiety as well. This volume is highly recommended for any one wanting to learn about the Apollo Program. Al Shepard, who was America's first... more info
Customer Review: Gemini is the often forgotten program. Mercury proved man could survive in space, and Apollo landed us on the moon. Gemini is the series that proved and developed all the technology for the trip to the moon. Wally Schirra and Tom Stafford were two of the best. Gemini 6 was the mission that that... more info
