The Man Who Knew The Way to the Moon by Todd Zwillich

4.0

Recommended. Houbolt was an admitted pain in the ass, despite being right a lot, and I did feel the shades of gray in this one. A central point here which I hadn’t given a lot of thought to was that Kennedy’s insistence of a moon landing rushed the projected pace of NASA, was capable of proceeding without building an infrastructure, and may have contributed to an “abandonment” of space in the mid-70s.

I’m sure many books do this very well, but this was a first for me.
