A Man on The Moon: 3 Volume Illustrated Commemorative Boxed Set Reviews
-
Amazing! This is the definitive title on the Apollo program. The 3-volume boxed set is the must-have version of the book. For the most part, the book is broken down by mission with as much detail as a person could possibly hope, full of color photographs, and lets face it, it's a seriously impressive and imposing set to have on the bookshelf.
