Has anyone read Hanna Reitsch's book?

Just a quick ask really.Having finished Eric “winkle” Browns book a while ago i thought i would have a read from the other side but i thought i would ask first.
There seems to be a few books ,which is the best and are they translated 😮

You might want to try Amazon US, in 1991, Bantam published a nice illustrated paperback edition in their “Air & Space series”…complete with a colour painting by William S. Phillips on the cover.
It was only $4.99 then.
It was a nice series, it included several titles that were otherwise out of print.

Read it years ago; can’t recall too much now, but I know I enjoyed it.
