A compliment to the earlier Road Test book and does not repeat any of the articles. The DS was a completely new concept in car design and construction. A high-pressure hydraulic system lay at its heart and was radically different from anything else on sale. The simpler ID was introduced to lure customers away from more conventional cars. At the end of production the styling was still fresh and unusual, and the suspension, a revelation to drivers, is probably only bettered by the modern Citroens.

Editorial :
The author of 'A Man on the Moon' has been able to get the men who have a marvelous story to tell,to express their stories like few have been able to accomplish,including their own admitted difficulty in telling the rest of us 'what it was like'.This book demonstrates quite well how one can get a person to open up their recollections with the right questions asked.History is served well when the story is told by those who made the history.I hope Chaikin has at least one more of these in depth stories to publishthey are indeed special!. This is original quality, a true contribution to our fledging space history captured with care and understanding before it's too late. You will quickly identify with some of the men and even be disturbed by others and certainly surprised and delighted as well. These are stories that will be passed along forever, as they should be, and never forgotten.. It is not the complete story of the Apollo moon missions; there are lots of history and technology book
