The international prestige of winning the Moon Race cannot be understated, and Gus Grissom played a pivotal and enduring role in securing that legacy for the US. Drawing on extensive interviews with fellow astronauts, NASA engineers, family members, and friends of Grissom, George Leopold places Grissom's life and career in the context of the Cold War and the history of human spaceflight.
