Overview

This volume is a separately-sold member of the four-volume Space Exploration reference intended for a middle school audience (a fifth volume--a slim comprehensive index--is also sold separately). It contains excerpts from 17 documents and speeches, beginning with a chapter from a Jules Verne book and ending with remarks made in early 2004 by George W. Bush on a new vision for space exploration. Each selection is introduced with material on the context, key points, and information on the author. A timeline, glossary, bibliography, index, and b&w illustrations support the text. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
