Author	Topic: I Walk In Space (Alexei Leonov)

All I can find on the web is a cover picture. I was wondering mainly if it was a Russian language publication, and if it contained insights not available in "Two Sides of the Moon".

It's an 80 page hardback book essentially for pre-teen kids but nicely illustrated by Leonov himself. I bought a copy on Abebooks.com which I'll be having signed as there are not many books in English on Leonov. The only autobiography I've found is a German book called "Spaziergaenger im All" from 1971.

It profiles Pavel Belyayev and Alexei Leonov and is nicely illustrated. Occasionally comes up on eBay.
