Into That Silent Sea: Trailblazers of the Space Era, 1961–1965
by Francis French and Colin Burgess
“Francis French and Colin Burgess don’t have any special hooks or other gimmicks in Into That Silent Sea; instead, they simply offer a well-written account about the Americans and Russians who were the first to fly into space. . . . The book . . . offer[s] some excellent profiles of these individuals that are accessible to both newcomers to space history and well-read enthusiasts alike.”—The Space Review
