For Christmas, get this book NOW for your space-obsessed buddy or family member. The Astronaut's Cookbook: Tales, Recipes, and More, by Charles T. Bourland and Gregory L. Vogt, is informative and often very funny, sharing tales from the vintage days of space travel (the best: John Young's sandwich crimes during Gemini 3 in 1965 and Dr. Joseph Kerwin's valiant struggle with a...sugar cookie after Skylab 2 in 1973).
