"An extraordinary autobiography about a true adventurer and iconoclast. Yeager not only accounts his exploits as a fighter ace in WWII and Korea, but as the hot-shot experimental pilot of the X series of jet planes. He attributes nearly all his success as a pilot to the fact that he has exceptional eyesight. But the writing is lively and Yeager's personality comes through in the telling. One of my favorite autobiographies."
"I thought this book was intriguing in terms of a first-hand account of life as a fighter pilot back when they first began. However, Yeager is egotistical beyond egotistical and this became increasingly annoying as the book progressed. He's definately got a lot to be proud of and has had quite the life. Think his wife must be an absolute genuine saint!!"
