Touching the Moon John Coutinho

Book DescriptionThe color of Portugal, the austerity of Germany, and the love of family are the cohesive elements behind "Touching The Moon." In this penetrating and detailed memoir, author John Coutinho provides readers with a distinctive view of a lifewell lived and remembered as he recalls his boyhood growing up in Washington, DC, his education in Germany, and his later years working with the team that put the Apollo on the moon. Coutinho places readers in the heart of the times and places he describes. He brings his story to life with crystal clear recollection and offers penetrating insight into many of the historical events that transpired, such as Hitler coming into power in Germany, or the excitement of working at Grumman on the Apollo space program and being an instrumental part of putting a man on the moon! In "Touching The Moon," Coutinho does more than deliver an interesting memoir; he provides readers with a glimpse into a bygone era that will remain in history forever.
