Description
Summary:	Using never-before-published quotes taken from his in-depth interviews with 23 of the 24 Apollo lunar astronauts, Chaikin and his collaborator, Victoria Kohl, have created an extraordinary account of the lunar missions. Here, astronauts vividly recount their experiences in intimate detail - their distinct personalities and remarkably varied perspectives emerge from their candid and deeply personal reflections. Carefully assembled into a narrative that reflects the entire arc of the lunar journey, Voices from the Moon captures the magnificence of the Apollo program like no other.
