This is a collection of letters from an American astronaut aboard Mir space station to his 18-month old son. The descriptions of life on a space station and adapting to a new extreme environment are really interesting. He plays down most of the terrifying things that happened and I felt that loss. His story of hiis space walk was very well told and riveting. I read it with my book group. I would not have chosen it myself, but I'm glad I read it.
