From New York Times bestselling author Robert Kurson comes the little known story of the daring odyssey of Apollo 8 and the astronauts that made man’s first journey to the moon.

Under pressure to pull ahead in the space race, NASA had just four months to prepare the astronauts and their families for this historic journey which would see man leave the Earth’s orbit for the first time and travel into space.

Robert spoke to Harvey Deegan on Remember When about this amazing story.
