Whether you are a new follower of Christ or a long-suffering theologian, this is a must read. I found the pages filled with thoughts I’ve had myself from my own reading confirmed and solidified as well as new ideas introduced and welcomed due to the scholarly work the authors put in. This is a well of insight and knowledge and one would do well to drink deep and long. Enjoy.

I was interested in reading this book about Neil Armstrong more because of having the pleasure of meeting him and was curious about hearing more of his story. Would my interactions with him (albeit limited) match up with what I would read about him here.

What Hansen shares here I have to say matches what I encountered personally. Mr. Armstrong is very unassuming and kind. One of the most “down to earth” people I’ve ever met actually. Pardon the pun.

As some reviewers alluded to there is a lot of technical jargon but I feel for the most part was warranted. Neil was an engineer and from what I gleaned from the story itself those aspects would have been important to him. The personal details and stories helped me gain a new perspective on Neil Armstrong. There is a lot of truth to what I recall reading at one point in the book, the 3 men of Apollo 11 will forever be outsiders of sorts due to their experience, but certainly not in a bad way.

I recommend this book if you looking for a story about a humble man and his attempt to be a human being. And if you like space and aerospace engineering this might be an enjoyable read for you. Thanks James Hansen for the reminder to look for awe and wonder, to dream and just be available, for you never know what adventure awaits you.
