“From the Earth to Mars includes some scenes in graphic novel format. It is an interesting hybrid approach of conventional text, illustrations and graphic novel scenes that works well, keeping the book flowing well.”

In an unparalleled, and well-researched, history of space travel, Manber seamlessly weaves comics, images, and prose to engage students on this shared human journey.

More than anything, reading From the Earth to Mars is a lot like having a conversation with Manber. And that’s a delight because he is knowledgeable, warm, witty, and entertaining on these subjects.

“Manber traces the cross-fertilization that took place between Russian and German rocketeers, as well as between those rocketeers and science-fiction writers.”

“There’s a bigger issue that makes me question his understanding/philosophy. Rockets started out as weapons. They were (and still are) used to attack cities. How does the government not restrict and regulate that?”

“Manber skillfully steers clear of this pitfall. Instead of immersing the reader in the complex technicalities of the science, he adeptly presents it in a manner that is accessible to the layperson yet avoids any trace of condescension.”
