Sputnik and the Hidden Rivalries that Ignited the Space Age
by Matthew Brzezinski
Matthew Brzezinski takes us inside the Kremlin, the White House, secret military facilities, and the halls of Congress to bring to life the Russians and Americans who feared and distrusted their compatriots as much as their superpower rivals.
"Starred Review. The writing is fast-paced and crisp, the stakes high and the tension palpable." - PW.
"Matthew Brzezinski’s reportorial skills and smooth writing propel the narrative forward at the perfect pitch. Red Moon Rising is a combustibly entertaining mixture of scientific daring, politics, Cold War duels, and big-time personalities." - Neal Bascomb, author of Red Mutiny.
"For narrative power that ranks with Jonathan Harr's A Civil Action and Richard Rhodes's The Making of the Atomic Bomb, masterpieces both, Red Moon Rising is the must-read Sputnik book." - The Providence Journal.
"If there were any justice in the world of publishing, this spectacular and accessible history of the space race would be rocketing to the top of best-seller lists." - USA Today.
