Book excerpt: This is a biography of Bill Kaysing (1922-2005), author of the important book "We never went to the Moon". It tells the whole story of a writer with a very unusual "alternative lifestyle." After working for Rocketdyne, Kaysing became a whistleblower regarding the Apollo Space Programme. He completely changed his lifestyle - to become a "nonconformist" and began to live a life which many free-thinkers might envy. He lived outside the constraints of the society that most of the rest of us live in. While living in California, he became quite infamous - all over the world as the "father" of the controversial theory of the Moon landing hoax. His extraordinary story is one that gives a fascinating glimpse into certain parts of American society and one that will "shake the conscience" of any reader who is not aware of the machinations of US corporations and government.
