Oh, here's another one - The Right Stuff by Tom Wolfe

Find out why it's not shocking that the astronauts are getting drunk before being launched into space. I know I probably would. "flying and drinking, drinking and driving"

Also, Wolfe's style is very easily accesible and entertaining. I've read both this book and the Electric Kool Aid Acid Test (about some famous beat figures, Ken Kesey and Timothy Leary and an acid fueled road trip across country) and both books are really fun to read. You're either on the bus or off the bus.
