The book is a collection of stories recalling the people that the author met and worked with at NASA - including many astronauts, some of whom walked on the Moon - and the many exciting and challenging jobs he had at NASA beginning with the Apollo lunar landing missions through his current position on the Board of Directors for the NASA Alumni League-JSC. The book includes historical context and includes stories about both the people and the events, with bits of humor along the way. The more than 100 photographs (most of which are personal photos) add great visual context to the many stories.
