Softcover. Condizione: Fine. Minor scratches; Bent spine. On the night of July 20, 1969, our world changed forever when two Americans, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, walked on the moon. Now the greatest event of the twentieth century is magnificently retold through the eyes and ears of the people who were there. Based on the interviews with twenty-three moon voyagers, as well as those who struggled to get the program moving, journalist Andrew Chaikin conveys every aspect of the missions with breathtaking immediacy: from the rush of liftoff, to the heart-stopping lunar touchdown, to the final hurdle of reentry.

Hardcover. Condizione: New. First Edition, Second Impression. A new copy of this stunning two-volume edition, sealed in the Folio Society's eco-wrapping as received directly from the publisher. Almost a decade in the writing, 'A Man on the Moon' is the definitive story of the Apollo programme. Andrew Chaikin's authoritative account is based on hundreds of hours of interviews with the astronauts, plus the scientists, engineers and flight controllers who shared every heartbeat of their voyages. This two-volume Folio Society edition features an exclusive new selection of photography, curated by the author from his personal archive, and sharp new scans of NASA films. It includes composite images created especially for this edition - something Chaikin discusses in a new preface to accompany the original foreword by Tom Hanks. It is the complete story of humankind's greatest feat of exploration, from the deadly Apollo 1 capsule fire, the pioneering flight of Apollo 8 and Neil Armstrong's 'giant leap for mankind', to near-catastrophe aboard Apollo 13 and the wide-ranging lunar explorations of the later missions. Housed in a pictorial slipcase, the books measure 9¼'' x 8¼'' and are three-quarter bound in blocked black cloth with printed paper front boards. There are 800 pages in total, printed in colour and b/w, and set in Apollo with Futura display. This is the ultimate edition of Chaikin's awe-inspiring history, featuring a unique selection of photography with many unpublished or rarely seen images. As well as nearly 200 colour and black-and-white photographs carefully placed within the text, it has glossy full-colour sections - including an eight-page fold-out in each volume - that show the superb images to their best advantage. By expertly matching each image to the text, Chaikin has given us a complete and unrivalled visual and verbal account of the Apollo missions. First Folio edition, second impression. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. HEAVY/OVERSIZE. U.K. postage at default charge but overseas buyers will be asked for extra. Enquiries welcome.
