Book Reviews of Genesis: The Story Of Apollo 8
Book Review: A Great Story told with Alarming Mediocrity
Summary: 2 Stars
What a great story. Too bad the story is told in fits and starts as Zimmerman jumps all over the timeline. Just as the story gets REALLY interesting, the author cuts it short and moves on to some esoterica--I don't really care about what churches the astronaut attended. By the end of the book, Zimmerman is cramming "GOD and COUNTRY" down the reader's throat to the point of nausea.It also looks like the publisher didn't have my copy proofed.
