America's Secret Air War Against the Soviet Union
Peebles. Early in the Cold War, the United States conducted a secret air war against the Soviet Union. As the struggle began, U-2 pilots were the pathfinders who flew into the unknown, seeking information on how the USSR might be preparing an attack on the West.
Flown by a handful of U.S. and allied aircrews, these photographic and electronic intelligence-gathering missions were unknown to the world at large. This is the intriguing and exciting history of that secret and often very hot element of the Cold War. 352 pages, 30 B&W photos, 6"x 9", softcover. #0005447
