Tragedy and Triumph in ORBIT The Eighties and Early Nineties

From the reviews:

“This large volume takes readers to the early 1990s. Evans provides very good details of people and events, but places much less emphasis on science, engineering, and space technology. The author’s intent was to emphasize the human and personal side of the many aspects of space exploration--not only of the Americans, but also of the Soviets and others. … Summing Up: Recommended. All academic, professional, and general space history collections.” (A. M. Strauss, Choice, Vol. 50 (5), January, 2013)
