Title: A good read
Review: I am a great reader of war and cold war books and this is quite good.The US needed intelligence on the Soviet Union. There was no way using traditional intelligence methods that she could do this. As such she developed air reconnaissance to a new degree.The writer write very well about this development. He gives an great history of the development of these planes. I found it fascinating.As too the political problems that emerged around these flights. The arguments for these missions that despite the large political cost that eventually occurred (as the result of Gary Powers capture showed) were worth paying.You can feel what the pilots on the missions felt though their stories on the missions that they flew. I felt the excitement that the pilots must have felt on their trips.I look forward to reading more from this writer.
