I don't know why this is called "the right stuff"

Written: Oct 24 '01

Product Rating: Product Rating: 1.0
Pros: good historic informations.

Cons: too many characters, and never stay on one main character.

The Bottom Line: Too boring, and too hard to follow.
hailin_wu's Full Review: Right Stuff Books
Personally I like the historic informations and the feeling and thoughts of the astronauts and others like Chuck Yeager. Tom Wolfe is a good author but the big mistake that I think he commited is not sticking with one character. It jumps from one to another which make it hard to follow, and some time too much information on certain situation.

He is really talented is describing stuff which helps you visualize the scenes. But I'm not gonna reconmend it because reading this book has really been a chore for me personally. So I would not reconmend it but you can try it if you want the biggest bore in your life.
