[sci.space.shuttle] old space books

Several recent posts reminded me of some old space books I had as a kid.
Found one: _Space for Everyone_ by Philip S. Egan, 1961, Rand McNally & co.
Looks like a pretty good kid's book (I doubt you'll ever find it though).
Another was a storybook: _There's Adventure in Rockets_ (can't lay hands on
this one, so I don't have the author's name), published in the late fifties.
It described a model rocketry club of kids building metal model rockets and
flying them on a friendly farmer's farm!  Sounds rather dangerous.
