Description: The Father, the Son, and the Holy ShuttleGrowing Up an Astronaut's Kid in the Glorious 80s By Patrick Mullane First Bookshop is pleased to offer The Father, the Son, and the Holy Shuttle: Growing Up an Astronaut's Kid in the Glorious 80s. Patrick Mullane, son of shuttle astronaut Mike Mullane, wrote and signed this first edition, this first printing and this paperback. Astronauts and cosmonauts conquered the world in the early 1960s. Their exploits were wildly applauded, their discoveries widely acknowledged, their lives the gist of newspapers, magazine and books. In The Father, the Son, and the Holy Shuttle, Patrick Mullane tackles the drama on an astronaut's family. Mullane witnessed U.S. space history in real time, from a perspective never before examined. In The Father, the Son, and the Holy Shuttle, his dad was defined by his job. Mullane's life was as a 10-year-old year who bounced from one of military base to the next. Then, as a teen-ager, the pimple-faced, unknown nerd in a storybook tale was seen as a pathetic underdog. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Shuttle is often about dad's profession, a secret held by mom, and Mullane's often-hilarious efforts to be of consequence. Happy reading! P.S.
