Professor James Libbey is retired from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University having a great amount of expertise in aviation history as well as Russian-American relations. His research is stellar as are his travels in developing the writing of this biography of an embarrassingly barely known and incredibly unsung developer of aviation progress as well as, ultimately, the U.S. Air Force.
