Condition: very good, fair to good. 2nd Revised Edition. 361, figures, tables, appendix, index, DJ somewhat scuffed: small edge tears/chips. Foreword and epilogue by Willy Ley. A survey of U.S.S.R. work, achievements, and plans for the future in the field of space flight, written by a prominent Soviet space scientist. The Soviet account carries the story through the launching of Sputniks I and II; Willy Ley's postscript describes the two subsequent Russian rockets--Sputnik III and Metchta. The Soviet author avoids politics and confines himself to the science and technology of astronautics, with full recognition of the work being done in other countries, particularly the United States.
