Thanks for that. Looks to be an interesting book in its own right.
I have both of those, highly recommended.

Just a few off the top of my head, the Jenkins Shuttle book... "Moon Lander: How We Developed the Apollo Lunar Module" by Thomas J. Kelly... "Chariots For Apollo" by Stoff and Pellegrino... "Wings In Orbit" edited by Wayne Hale and others.... "Riding Rockets" by Mike Mullane... "Carrying The Fire" by Mike Collins. I've not read it yet, but I hear the John Young autobiography is good, Neil Armstrong's biography "First Man" too. Others can weigh in here with many more, and someplace there is a spaceflight book thread on the forum as well.
As DMeader noted, there is a Spaceflight Book thread, which can be found here:http://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=15532.0
