The Man Who Went to the Far Side of the Moon: The Story of Apollo 11 Astronaut Michael Collins

77 pp. | Chronicle | September, 2003 | Trade ISBN 0-8118-4007-7 $$14.95
(4) 4-6 Collins, the astronaut who remained in orbit while Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon's surface, is the ostensible focus of what is basically a general overview of the entire Apollo 11 journey. Photos, drawings, and reproductions give the volume a stunning appearance, but the facts are presented in a scattershot manner--making this well-designed book more impressionistic than informational. Glos.
Reviewer: Peter D. Sieruta
