Review : Blast off

7 March 1998

Walter McDougall’s Pulitzer prize-winning …The Heavens and the Earth is a
lucid and comprehensive political history of the American, European and Russian
space programmes. This weighty, in-depth book will probably be of more interest
to the enthusiast than the casual reader. Published by Johns Hopkins University
Press, £16.50/$19.95, ISBN 0801857481.
