The Fastest Man Alive (1986) By Frank Kendall Everest & John Guenther
The personal life story of the world-famous American rocket plane pilot.
In the Bell X-2 he made thirteen flights, exploring the unknown, discovering the effects of the heat barrier that builds up at supersonic speeds. He was the first man to touch close on Mach 3 (three times the speed of sound) and, in the words of the citation of the Harmon award, 'is the fastest man alive, having flown faster than 1,900 miles per hour'.
