The Far Side of the Moon: The Story of Apollo 11's Third Man

80 pp. | Tilbury | March, 2017 | Trade ISBN 978-0-88448-452-3 $16.95
(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Ben Bishop. Michael Collins, the oft forgotten third man of the Apollo 11 mission, didn't walk on the moon. But Irvine's graphic-novel account honors Collins's critical role in the mission, making sure he, Armstrong, and Aldrin got there and back safely. The sketchy, monochromatic art fits the setting, and Bishop seamlessly includes several explanatory diagrams within his paneled illustrations. Reading list, timeline, websites.
