Soviet Space Secrets: Hidden stories from the Space Race
by Dominic Phelan
Soviet Space Secrets recounts some of the stranger spaceflight stories to have emerged since the fall of the 'Iron Curtain'. Chapters on this hidden history include: the Russian space pioneer killed during Stalin's murderous purge of the 1930s; how Jodrell Bank radio telescope in England played a unique part in 'snooping' on the first Sputniks; the Soviet side of the Moon Race; and efforts to get cosmonauts to Mars by 1975!

Thankfully there are now a few reviews of 'Soviet Space Secrets' on the British Amazon site. Unfortunately, these don't appear on the main site so I'd really appreciate any reviews on the .com version if you purchased the book there!

Thanks to "Mr. X" for stepping up to the plate to write the first '.com' review.

I have updated "Soviet Space Secrets" to include a new chapter detailing western press attempts to report the Space Race from Moscow in the 1960s.
