The Moon: A History for the Future

An intimate, profound portrait of the Earth's closest neighbour.

'An out-of-this-world read ... brilliant and compelling. Morton is a high-octane British science journalist, and every chapter is littered with material that strikes, amazes or haunts ... this is a book filled not just with a lifetime's knowledge of its subject but with a lifetime's suppressed excitement.'
James McConnachie, Sunday Times
