The Last Man on the Moon

The 1960s was an extraordinary time for the United States.

A test pilot who lived to court danger, he was recruited along with 14 other men in a secretive process that saw them become the closest of friends and adversaries.

As he looks back at what he loved and lost during the eight years in Houston, an incomparably eventful life emerges into view.
