Fighting for Space

Fighting for Space: Two Pilots and Their Historic Battle for Female Spaceflight is a nonfiction book by Amy Shira Teitel published in 2020.

In The Space Review, Jeff Foust says "Teitel certainly brings to life these two pioneering women who had similar visions, but conflicting views of how to realize them."

Foust takes issue with the lack of footnotes and Teitel's reluctance to address inconsistencies between claims made by the women and historical evidence.

"[3] The Library Journal describes it as an "inspiring story" and an "awe-inducing biography that space junkies, feminists, and historians will eat up.

"[4] Fighting for Space was a Library Journal Top Pick in women's history.
