Product Description
The names of the astronauts will forever be inscribed in our history books, but the names of the entire Apollo launch support team at the Kennedy Space Center and the thousands who supported Apollo elsewhere will only be known to a few.

Martha Lemasters’ gripping memoir tells the remarkable story of her life as a single mother working at Cape Kennedy during the Apollo years and is a riveting insider’s look at the real dream team who made the extraordinary achievement, of landing a man on the moon, possible.

Bold and complex, women’s issues and equality are underlying themes of this richly woven tale. Science, history, humor, and romance all intermingle in this stunningly fresh and inspiring account of one woman’s journey as she overcomes every obstacle on her path to finding happiness and success.
