The sub-title says it all: The Otherworldly Life of Rocket Scientist John Whiteside Parsons. I saw this lying on a table at the library and was fascinated by the cover, both the title and the pictures. Reading the jacket convinced me, I had to know more about this goofy mad scientist that worked on rocket engines and hung around with science fiction authors and spiritual con men at the dawn of the rocket age. I had never heard of him before and now I will never forget him.
