Painstakingly detailed reconstruction of the flight of Apollo 13, whose equipment malfunctions led to the scrubbing of the third Moon landing and very nearly took the lives of the three astronauts aboard. Co-authored by flight commander Jim Lovell, the book also examines the backgrounds of the men who flew the Apollo Missions and touches on the politics of the entire program.
