Breaking the Chains of Gravity: The Story of Spaceflight before NASA by Amy Shira TeitelMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
The book tells the story of early american Space missions starting from their roots in German war efforts which helped them when the scientists emigrated to US after world war 2 to creation of NASA.
The book is interesting has lot of new things to know about, But at times feel like reading a research paper with too man names in every paragraph.
It seems for some reason the Author couldn't bring herself to say that USSR was the first to send a man in space.
