Negative Positive
Title: A good book no expert could love
Review: I second Colin Burgess's insightful review. Thompson's description of the flight portions of Apollo 14 is derived almost exclusively from Barbree and Benedict's unreliable "Moonshot" and, consequently, bears only a passing resemblance to reality. The critical events related to the abort switch and landing radar simply did not happen as described. In my work on the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal, I have always found it useful to check astronaut memories against other sources. I can only wish that Thompson had exercised such care.
Is the review positive or negative?
