High Calling: The Courageous Life and Faith of Space Shuttle Columbia Commander Rick Husband by Evelyn Husband

informative reflective medium-paced

3.0

 I found this book at a thrift store and picked it up because I had watched a documentary about Columbia recently. This was about Commander Rick Husband, as the title clearly states, and was written by his wife. I enjoyed learning about his life and how he started his journey to becoming an astronaut. It was heartbreaking to see how his death impacted his family, friends, and coworkers. People all over the country and world were gutted by this tragedy and the aftermath and facts that subsequently came to light. This was a decent book, and I would suggest it to anyone who is interested in the space program, however it was not the best book I read this particular year.
