Description: "Come Up and Get Me: An Autobiography of Colonel Joe Kittinger", co-written by Craig Ryan, offers an inside look at the extraordinary life of Joe Kittinger, a pioneer in manned ballooning and a key figure in Project Excelsior. This 2010 hardcover edition, published by the University of New Mexico Press, is signed and inscribed by Kittinger himself, making it a valuable collectible. With 256 pages, the book details his career in military aviation, including his notable service during the Vietnam War and his groundbreaking achievements in high-altitude balloon flights. The book and dust jacket are both very clean, and the book appears unread. The boards show a very slight warp when the book is laid flat. A must-have for aviation enthusiasts, collectors, and anyone interested in the history of aerospace exploration.
