Joseph T. Page II (“Joe”) is an amateur space historian and former Air Force space and missile officer. The space and history “bug” bit him early in life while growing up at White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico, the “Birthplace of America’s Missile and Space Activity.” After spending a decade in uniform, Joe and his family finally settled in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from the University of New Mexico and is currently pursuing graduate studies in history. This is his first Fonthill Media title.
