Stars: 4
Review by: jamBob
A darling Retro book that sling shoots you back to the exciting days of the Space Program. The Astronaut Wives Club is to the women of that day as the Right Stuff was for the men. A lot of research and interviewing went into this book. It is the inspiration for the series now on TV every Thursday night. Ah...if we could only bring back those clothes! The book is an interesting look at what the women went through while their men trained for and conquered space. Its also a look back to the culture of our country at the time and the place women occupied. Moon landings, pit falls, tragic accidents, heart breaks and triumphs all packed into a short few decades of time, but what a ride it was!
