"The Space Eagle: Operation Doomsday" story by Jack Pearl based upon characters and settings created by Raymond J. Meurer and developed by Meurer-Preston-Austin, illustrations by Arnie Kohn, published by Whitman Publishing Company, 1967.

Original illustrated hard boards; 5" x 7.1/2"; illustrated endpapers, pen-written "Larry P." on the front endpaper, 212 pages + 'The Space Eagle Pledge to America'; very good condition.

First book in Whitman's teen space adventure series inspired by the national fascination with the cold war competition between the U.S. and Russia for domination of the new frontier.

The book takes place not too long after the 1960s, but the world has developed space travel, and many world powers have spaceships. The story starts in Greenland, at a stopover in the World Grand Prix Air Race. International playboy Paul Girard lands his experimental plane, the XY-Fury, having pulled into the lead during the prior leg of the race.
