Fantastic book - unique and wonderful for space lovers

My sisters and I gave this book to our Dad for his 83rd birthday. He has been a lover of space from the time he was a kid and this book captured all his memories and even the things he didn't remember. He started reading through it the second after he opened the gift. He has been reading it an enjoying it for over a month now! This is a great, unique gift that will appeal to those who enjoy history, space and the news stories of the New York Times.

Do you need the magnifying glass to be able to read the book?

Verified reply from Michelle

Hi! Due to the fact that newspaper layouts have changed over time and the formatting that was required to create the pages for the book it is possible pages may require magnification to read.
