A review by sinikl
The Right Stuff by Tom Wolfe

4.0

I am a space junkie, but had never read this book. I loved the subject matter, the insight, getting a sense of the test pilot world and seeing the camaraderie that influenced the Mercury mission. Although I found this to be entertainingly well-written, there is one element that sticks in my craw: Tom Wolfe likes exclamation points! A lot! It might be a crutch! Or a stylistic choice! But it is annoying!
