Apollo: A Graphic Guide to Mankind's Greatest Mission
by Zack Scott
July 20, 1969, marked one of the greatest achievements of mankind — the moon landing. In his infographic-packed book, Apollo: A Graphic Guide to Mankind's Greatest Mission, Zack Scott recounts the entire journey of the Apollo space program.

Unlike previous books on this topic, Scott illustrates the tiniest details of how man came to walk on the moon, paying particular attention to many of the lesser known facts about the mission. Artful infographics throughout focus on a wide range of details that space-lovers will obsess over — astronaut weights, mission insignia and spacecraft call signs, fuel consumption stats, splashdown sites around the world, and much, much more.

A fresh, hip approach to the subject, Apollo is the perfect combination of science, design, math, and space.

I don't know to what extent this book is a duplicate to the author's other Apollo work as described here.

I have been wondering the same thing and would like to hear from anyone who has had a chance to compare the two.

I've emailed Abrams Image. I'll post any info they or the author can provide.
