Dec 28, 2016

really liked it

Recommended for: American history

Read in December, 2016 — I own a copy , read count: 1

This is an excellent nonfiction novel to learn about the African-American women who largely contributed to America's race to space. What I especially appreciated was the way Shetterley always grounded the story in history. The reader is always reminded of what else is going on in the world as well as other American historical events. Hidden Figures is a must read.
