Product Information
In October 1968 Donn Eisele flew with fellow astronauts Walt Cunningham and Wally Schirra into Earth orbit in Apollo 7, the first manned mission in the Apollo program. Despite the success of Apollo 7, Eisele never flew in space again. After his retirement, Eisele wrote in detail about his years in the air force and his time in the Apollo program. Readers can now share in Eisele's experiences.

Reviews
" Apollo Pilot is a lost treasure of the golden age of space exploration, a critical and controversial time that people talk about, but that no one has ever heard like this. This first-person account of Apollo 7' s Donn Eisele is a vital missing piece of the history of NASA's journey to the moon."--David Hitt, coauthor of Homesteading Space: The Skylab Story , "Raw, unvarnished, and edgy, this is Eisele, unplugged. His highly personal account is both sweet and sour but, ultimately, one hell of a unique and fascinating read."--Richard Jurek, coauthor of Marketing the Moon: The Selling of the Apollo Lunar Program, "At long last, the enigmatic Donn Eisele tells his story. Eisele holds nothing back in his memoirs discussing 1960s-era NASA and his historic Apollo 7 mission. His blunt reminiscences make other Apollo astronaut autobiographies look like kids' books. His memoirs illuminate his frustrations with astronaut life, his unique, often quirky sense of humor, and his thrill at the view from Earth's orbit. Like it or not, Eisele tells it like it is--his long-silenced voice is finally brought to vivid life."--Emily Carney, space historian, "I came away astounded, frankly, by [Donn Eisele's] brutally honest depiction of life in the heyday of NASA. I felt like I was there with Eisele, only a step or two behind him during the colorful phases of selection, training, and flight operations that marked his time as an Apollo 7 crewmember."--Jay Gallentine, space historian and award-winning author of Infinity Beckoned: Adventuring Through the Inner Solar System, 1969-1989, "At long last, the enigmatic Donn Eisele tells his story.
