What Others are Saying About
From Passaic to the Moon

"What a delightful story this is for the reader. It takes you on a journey of fascinating anecdotes and humor over the years. Beginning with the introduction of the zipper in men's pants, hilariously told by the author - to modern day space technology. It is an engineer's insider's recollections, starting in Passaic, New Jersey - literally traversing across the country and then on to the moon!

After reading Bob Rosenthal's book, I have developed a new found respect for engineers and their great contributions to society.

You have a real winner with this book!"

"Some men just dream of doing great things with their lives. Others tried to accomplish goals and have failed. Then there are the men like Bob Rosenthal who have managed to accomplish many triumphs.

From Passaic to the Moon is a book filled with the dreams and triumphs of an engineer. It shows us how one man can make a difference in what he does with his life that can affect all of us in one form or another. I was very impressed with the fact that he had a hand in one of our country's outstanding accomplishments, sending a man to the moon.

Mr. Rosenthal's writing is filled with charm and wit. He also has the ability to add special effects to make one laugh. This is a book that one would really enjoy. I have walked away with a better understanding of what an engineer does and how their decisions affect all of us."

"From Passaic to the Moon is a joyous verbal romp. Bob Rosenthal entertains us with his wit, bravado and incredible Chutzpah. Through his wonderful descriptions we peer into the glorious days when the United States swept the great minds of our times into the development of the space program. Rosenthal shows us with honest simplicity, in words the layman can understand, how such companies as Douglas, Grumman and Fairchild operated. Even when working beside the great Wernher von Braun, he doesn't take himself too seriously. This book is not a self-serving tribute to the author and his undisputed contributions as a talented aerospace engineer. Instead it is a story of a man who has the courage to laugh at poor decisions, and to forge ahead with bravado. To the aspiring business person, I say read and learn. To the layman who simply wants a great read, I say enjoy. It is well worth your time."
