At its height, it employed almost half a million people, many working seven days a week and each determined that \"it will not fail because of me.\"Beginning with fighter pilots in World War II, Maurer traces the origins of the program to a few exceptional soldiers, and an eager eager man who would become president.   Packed with adventure, new stories about familiar people, and undeniable danger, Destination Moon takes an unflinching look at a tumultuous time in American history, told expertly by Richard Maurer.   Maurer's most recent middle-grade nonfiction, The Woman on the Moon is being published simultaneously with this all-new paperback edition of Destination Moon.","brand":"Scotia Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41920393248951,"sku":"9781250830111","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0570\/5629\/7143\/products\/9781250830111.jpg?v=1694721910","url":"https:\/\/www.scotiabooksonline.co.uk\/products\/9781250830111","provider":"scotia-books-online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
