A 'must read'. If for no other reason that it was the first of the authentic descriptions of life at NASA during the 60s. Perhaps like Don Eisele was for astronaut divorces, Walt was for the 'tell all' astronaut autobiography, not approved by NASA et al. Once he did it, others saw no reason not to do likewise.
