Funnily enough, the first space book I ever read as kid had a pic and
description of what an explosive bolt looked like and how it worked.
This was the Ladybird book on ~How it works; The Rocket" (Age 9 upwards !)
This was printed in 1967 and contains a fair (20pages) bit of rocket technology
explained in very simple terms with lots of colour pics. Thoroghly recommend
it for all budding rocket engineers.  Dunno if it is available in the US
though.

They also do the same for: Nuclear power, Aeroplane, Ship etc

(You might be amused to know that I picked up this little gem at our Church
jumble sale in Malaysia (Borneo, in fact) way back in 72 !)
