Privateers1985
by Ben Bova
This latest of Grand Tour chronicles tells a brilliant tale of revenge, love, and freedom while also laying out a vision for the human future in Space. Setting itself up for a final confrontation between Soviet official Vasily Malik and American/Venezuelan industrialist Dan Randolph, this book reasonably describes how Third World Nations might take the lead in both liberty and space exploration as America withdraws from a world teeming with dictatorships.
