My faithful readers have given me this translated title : Seventeen space dawns (1963). This is sort of fill-in post since the book is mostly Russian text and I really just wanted to share some of the graphics from this book.

Well, title can be translated roughly as “Seventeen space dawns”. (“Заря” actually means “red sky at morning/night”)
ReplyDeleteThe book was written by Gherman Titov, the second Soviet cosmonaut after Yuri Gagarin. The title refers to his Vostok 2 mission, in which he orbited the earth 17 times. The title page identifies him as "Hero of the Soviet Union...Pilot-Cosmonaut of the USSR." The subtitle says "Autobiographical novel." The first heading reads "Dawn of the Cosmic Era" but I don't know what the other one means.
