Books

• Moonwatcher's Memoir: A Diary of 2001: A Space Odyssey

  From start to finish, this is a compelling and revealing work. Richter's writing is compact and concise, and he presents us with information that is relevant only to the story of how The Dawn of Man sequence from 2001: A Space Odyssey was created and filmed.
