From the (Library e-)Bookshelf: The New Guys

Never having got around to unsubscribing from promotional emails from the Kennedy Space Center visitor’s centre, I happened to see a notice about a new book about the astronauts hired in 1978 to begin restaffing NASA in preparation for space shuttle launches. I looked up the ebook version of Meredith Babgy’s The New Guys without quite being ready to commit to buying it. Then, I happened to see a hardcover copy in the bookstore. That just managed to turn my thoughts to having just read a different book on space through my library’s ebook lending service (Stephen Walker’s Beyond, which is about Yuri Gagarin). When I looked up The New Guys, it was there too.
