Into That Silent Sea: Trailblazers of the Space Era, 1961-1965

Finally a book that leaves most of the technical aspects out and focuses on the astronauts involved in both the Soviet and American Space Programs. The authors spent the time researching each astronaut to not only tell you about his journey into space but also about how he came to be a spacefarer. This is a good book not only for the space enthusiast but also those who just want to know about the people who went into space.
