Description

The Apollo Photo Archive series comprises the most comprehensive pictorial record of America's moon-landing program ever published.

The series continues with Apollo 7's launch in October 1968. Crewed by Wally Schirra, Donn Eisele, and Walt Cunningham, it was the first successful Apollo space flight. Less than two years after the Apollo 1 disaster in January 1967, the success of Apollo 7 helped redirect the course of the Apollo program and, therefore, space history.

Readers will enjoy more than 700 photos, which feature the arrival and assembly of the rocket and spacecraft, crew selection and training, preflight activities, mission countdown, launch, the flight itself, splashdown, and subsequent crew appearances and related activities.

Critical Reviews

ldquo;This meticulously researched and wonderfully comprehensive photographic chronicle captures the mission that marked NASA's triumphant recovery from tragedy. Apollo 7, long-overshadowed by later flights, finally gets the treatment it deserves as a critical milestone in America's race to the Moon."--Andrew Chaikin, author of A Man on the Moon: The Voyages of the Apollo Astronauts
