Description: Gen. Chuck Yeager is widely regarded as the greatest test pilot of them all. He was the first man to fly faster the speed of sound. He was a World War II fighting ace who shot down a Messerchmitt jet with a prop-driven P-51 Mustang. He was the original guy with "the right stuff": He defined a certain quality that all the hotshot fly boys of the post-war era aimed to achieve. As the nation moved on from the war, Yeager led the way into the Golden Age of Aviation, the exciting leap into the supersonic era. The story is all here, in his own words. SIGNED by Chuck Yeager AND by his wife, Glennis Yeager, and inscribed to a previous owner. Clean, solid used copy with several short teats and nicks along edges. Dust jacket will be placed in a Mylar protector prior to shipment. SHIPS IN A BOX WITH PACKING.
