My guess is that we picked this book up while on a family vacation in Florida. From the title, I expected it to be more pictures than it was--there are pictures but also quite a bit of text. Most of the pictures that are included are beautiful.

The text itself is a bit dry.

Beware: the space exploration ends in 1969 with Apollo 11's mission (which included the moon landing). If you want information on the early days of the "space race" and how we got to the moon, this is a good book. If you're looking for anything after the moon landing, you'll want to look elsewhere. (
