John Glenn
The First American in Orbit and His Return to Space
The Library of Astronaut Biographies
As one of the first-generation of NASA astronauts, John Glenn would be the first American to enter Earth's orbit. After many successful years in the U.S. Senate, Glenn would shock and delight the world by returning to space almost forty years after his pioneering flight. His incredible, action-packed life story is told with great zest and further enhanced by dozens of full-color NASA photographs.

Series Review--"Rosen Publishing carves out a niche in focusing its space-related young reader series on biographies. They contain engaging bits of information. All are well written and feature a glossary, a list of web sites, and books for further reading."-Ohioana Quarterly
