The book is a gem - John Eric Thompson - Monday, November 25, 2019
This book is terrific and very well written. Once I began to read this book, I did not want to put it down. I remember a lot of the key figures described in this book and was lucky to have met Gary Rosenfield at several launches along with Frank Kosdon and more mentioned in the book. High Power Rocketry is an active hobby in my life and I am grateful for those who took the risk with helping to provide the infrastructure to make it legal across the states.
