The bonus is, the book is well written, clearly organized in a logical fashion, and has all the indicators of a labor of love on the part of the authors.I find myself constantly re-reading sections; the audacity (and talent!) of the people involved is breathtaking; the authors capture that. If, for example, you're fascinated with the development of the SR-71, and reading about the ingenuity exhibited by those folks in problem solving, this is a book for you.Never reckless, but never timid, these folks pushed through challenges that would scare the current NASA mob witless. In a weird way, the Soviet challenge may have set back manned space flight decades; we junked far more promising projects to win a race we were never going to loose anyway - the logical follow-ons to the X-15 were ignored in favor of quick-fix solutions. But no whining here! The X-15 stands on it's own merits as a thunderous success. Read this book! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good *by D***1 on April 18, 2006* Not to take from old Chuck's efforts, but I've always thought the X-15 was the more interesting program. It's amazing the level of accomplishments they made, yet the X-15 is far from being as well known to the public as some other programs in aviation. If you like the X-15, this is definitely the book. It's not the kind of book you just fly through and look at the photos, then throw on a shelf... It is definitely worth your while to take the time and really read through the details of how the aircraft worked, what the Pilots went through, and how the milestones were achieved technically. The flight log in the back is amazing in it's detail, evening listing the chase aircraft and chase Pilots involved in each mission. I purchased it along with the X-15 Scrapbook, and they work well together. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well researched and most remarkably - a really entertaining read. *by M***N on February 6, 2014* This book is packed with detail, from detail diagrams of parts of the aircraft, to how the missions were launched as well as plenty of informative photographs. It also provides a comprehensive history of the aircraft and well as biographies of the key individuals involved. Normally this would be all that you would need in an item such as this, but this book goers further; the writers have managed to present would could have had the potential to be really boring material on the history of the aircraft into a fantastically engaging narrative. It's really well put together and I don't think I have ever read an aviation book that is so well done. Highly recommended. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/16095368-hypersonic-the-story-of-the-north-american-x-15-revised](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/16095368-hypersonic-the-story-of-the-north-american-x-15-revised) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-06-07*
