Pete Conrad is perhaps not as well-remembered as many of his fellow 1960s astronauts, but he was the third man to walk on the moon -- and the first to dance on it. Conrad died in a motorcycle accident in 1999. His wife Nancy has teamed with Hollywood screenwriter Howard Klausner to write Conrad's biography.
Being the first man to step onto the surface of the moon made astronaut Neil Armstrong an instant world celebrity, but instead of cashing in on his fame, Armstrong chose to blend back into private life, leading some to label him reclusive. Now a biography of Neil Armstrong, written with his permission, shows us the life of the man who was engineer, aviator, test pilot, and astronaut. James Hansen calls his book First Man.
