Description

'Strap yourself in for a thrilling ride with genuine American heroes - six women who proved you don't need the right plumbing to have the right stuff! Loren Grush deftly recounts the true grit and deep talent that smashed the celestial glass ceiling. A must-read for explorers on Earth and beyond' Lynn Sherr, author of Sally Ride: America's First Woman in Space 'A dazzling look into the lives of the first U.S. women to venture into space. Through its deep reporting and vivid storytelling, the book illuminates the immense obstacles and tragedies these women faced on their way to inspiring the world with their audacious, courageous spirits. This is a story that had to be told, and Grush has told it brilliantly' Ashlee Vance, author of Elon Musk: Tesla, Space X, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future 'Loren Grush has painted compellingly intimate portraits of a group of brave astronauts who changed the face of NASA - and exploration - by opening frontiers on the ground on their way to space. Well-researched and gripping, The Six is an inspiring and, at times, maddening tale that reminds us what the definition of hero is and who gets to carry that mantle' Christian Davenport, author of The Space Barons
