I loved this book. I grew up and became a woman during the space race and this book brought back vivid memories of the times and events. It gave me a perspective on the role wives were forced to play, essentially being asked, no told, to present a picture of family bliss no matter the toll the space race was taking on their marriage and family, also. The author did a very good job of showing the challenges women faced in a world where marriage, family and a dutiful wife was all that was expected of young women, juxtaposed against the testosterone of the space race and even broadcast news. The author did a beautiful job of making that struggle come alive while at the same time exploring so elegantly an "infinite" space and an "infinite" love! I would recommend this book wholeheartedly!
