To the Moon!: The True Story of the American Heroes on the Apollo 8 Spaceship by Jeffrey Kluger with Ruby Shamir
Text from the back cover:
In 1968, Americans were reeling from the spacecraft fire that killed the Apollo 1 crew a year earlier. There were rumors that the Russians were preparing to fly around the moon, and NASA wanted to win the space race. In a risky move, a few days before Christmas in 1968, they sent Frank Borman, Jim Lovell, and Bill Anders to the moon. This story of Apollo 8, the first crewed spaceship to reach the moon, describes the science and training needed to put a person into space and what it's like to live in a spaceship.
