Sinopsis
What is it, I wondered, that makes a man willing to sit on top of an enormous Roman Candle, such as a Redstone, Atlas, Titan, or Saturn rocket, and wait for someone to light the fuse? I decided on the simplest approach possible. I would ask a few of the astronauts and find out - The men had it. Yeager. Conrad. Grissom. Glenn. Heroes. The first Americans in space - battling the Russians for control of the heavens, putting their lives on the line. The women had it. While Mr Wonderful was aloft, it tore your heart out that the Hero's Wife, down on the ground, had to perform with the whole world watching. The Right Stuff. It's the quality beyond bravery, beyond courage.

Sobre Brenda's Bookshelf
Brenda's Bookshelf was originally opened as Fort Logan Bookstore which was established in 1993 as a storefront and mail order business. The name change was due to Brenda's husband's serious health problems and the need to put the business in Brenda's name. Inventory was placed on the Internet in 1998 and has operated on several major book servers since then. It is located on a major highway in Central Texas.
