Synopsis
General Chuck Yeager, the greatest test pilot of them all -- the first man to fly faster than the speed of sound . . .the World War II flying ace who shot down a Messerschmitt jet with a prop-driven P-51 Mustang . . .the hero who defined a certain quality that all hotshot fly-boys of the postwar era aimed to achieve: the right stuff. Now Chuck Yeager tells his whole incredible life story with the same wide-open, full throttle approach that has marked his astonishing career. What it was really like enaging in do-or-die dogfights over Nazi Europe. How after being shot over occupied France, Yeager somehow managed to escape. The amazing behind-the-scenes story of smashing the sound barrier despite cracked ribs from a riding accident days before. The entire story is here, in Yeager's own words, and in wondeful insights from his wife and those friends and colleagues who have known him best. It is the personal and public story of a man who settled for nothing less than excellence, a one-of-a-kind portrait of a true American hero. From the Paperback edition.

    Many, many thanks! Book arrived in beautiful condition. Seller listed it as in very good condition, but I would have rated it in fine condition. It was promptly shipped and very well packaged with bubble wrap and shipped in a box to protect it from bumps and careless handling while in the mail. All of this and a great price too. I would highly recommend this seller. Again thanks so very much!! A 5 star A+ job in every way!!!

    A beautiful book hand signed from one of the most daring of mankind I give my namesake to the Yeager Subconstant Observatorus Engine project ! If and when it may hopefully find it's way to the eye of Elon's identical mind, yet with means to green light this WarpX drive up top Starman's Falcon Heavy lift BFG in route to L2 orbit or bust. For his mind can see why this name gives reason to risk change as by its unique physic of waveformed Biphase Rodin Torus inductive light speed motor xeno design.

  • A great man, a great American.

    I read this book when it was first published about thirty years ago. This great American recently died and I am looking forward to reading it again.

  • best book I've read in a while...

    This is the best book I've read in a long time I gave my last one away to a friend this is just a repurchase. Chuck Yeager grew up in an era will never be able to retain again. He was a Pioneer in his days, an outstanding pilot, and an outstanding physical specimen. He took Muroc, then gave it to us in the record books! awesome read.
