Description
The Last Pilot by Benjamin Johncock is a gripping story set against the backdrop of one of America's most emotionally charged periods. In the late 1940s, US Air Force test pilots are racing to break the sound barrier, driven by a sense of duty and ambition. As the space race gains momentum in the 1960s, Jim Harrison and his colleagues are offered a place in history as the world's first astronauts. But when his young family is thrown into crisis, Jim must make a decision that will affect the course of his life forever - one that will take him to the moon at what cost. This powerful tale explores the human side of courage and sacrifice, revealing the personal costs of pursuing greatness.
