Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 1st Edition. This autobiography is the story of a man dedicated to flying, first in the defence of the Soviet Union in World War II, and then test flying the new generation of Russian Jet Fighters that confronted the West during wars in Korea, Vietnam, and throughout the prolonged Cold War period. It also provides extraordinary insight into political and social life of the leadership of the USSR from the days of Stalin until the eventual breakdown of the communist regime. The author is also able to look at many of the most significant events on the world stage, from both a military and political viewpoint. A brilliant book, definitely an insight into life from a different perspective of those from the west.
