This book presents a brief history of every project that NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) was involved in from 1958 to 2008. I enjoyed the overview and the pictures (although they were kind of small to see details), but I thought the wording was awkward in parts. I appreciated the effort and being able to learn more about these projects.
