Book Signing
Rocket Men: The Epic Story of the First Men on the Moon
Craig Nelson
Saturday, July 11, 2009
1:00 pm to 3:00 pm
Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center


 

Author Craig Nelson will sign copies of his thrilling account of the Apollo 11 Moon mission, Rocket Men.

The book restores the mystery and majesty to an event that may have become too familiar for most people to realize what a stunning achievement it represented in planning, technology, and execution. Rocket Men is the story of a twentieth-century pilgrimage; a voyage into the unknown motivated by politics, faith, science, and wonder that changed the course of history.
