Requests:  0 Summary:  On February 20, 1962, John Glenn became a national star. That morning at Cape Canaveral, the small-town boy from Ohio took his place atop a. rocket and soared into space. . . He became celebrated in all corners of the world as not just the first American to orbit the Earth, but as the first space traveler to take the human race with him. Refusing to let that dramatic day define his life, he went on to become a four-term US senator, and returned to space at the age of seventy-seven. The Last American Hero is a stunning examination of the layers that formed the man: a hero of the Cold War, a two-time astronaut, a veteran senator, a devoted husband and father, and much more. At a time when an increasingly cynical world needs heroes, John Glenn's aura burns brightly in American memory.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 973.92709 Glenn Ge Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973.92709 Glenn Ge Checked In Add Copy to MyList
