Beginning in the nation's capital, Washington, DC, Kranz will visit stores and libraries California, Colorado, Florida, Massachusetts and Texas. He is also scheduled to visit New York City to take part in a series of press interviews.
In Failure, Kranz recounts his three decades working for NASA, offering his own perspective on some of the most famous flights in U.S. space history.
