Saturn 1/1B: The Complete Manufacturing and Test Records (Apogee Books Space Series)

A complete history of the life of each Saturn I/IB rocket stage, which played a central role in the Apollo Project, this book reviews the manufacturing process, reveals how the rockets were tested, and identifies the problems associated with them. Rarely published photographs of how the rockets were built and tested are included with statistical data—such as details of the engines attached to each stage and the transportation records of each stage—as well as information on the many manufacturing and test facilities used and the current status of each one.
