I don't normally like non fiction but I found this book about the space race of the 1960s to be very engaging.
It's a tale of how the USSR and USA battled to become the first nation to send a man into space.
I was surprisingly quite affected reading about the animals that were experimented with, and who were sent to space ahead of the humans.
A very engaging book, well worth a read for anyone interested in the topic.
