Very out of date by now. Get Asif Siddiqi's book instead.
OM said:Be advised it is a *thick* book, although ISTR hearing the GPO split the book into two volumes.
This is half of a book, not Volume 2. We start at page 517 and proceed to page 1005. Being the second half of the book, it includes the Tables and Appendices (over 100 pages of them) plus the index. The index actually covers the whole book which can be frustrating for those (like me) who only have this half.

According to Amazon (.co.uk) the first half of the book is Sputnik and the Soviet Space Challenge (576 pages) and the second half is The Soviet Space Race with Apollo (512 pages). From one of the reviews of the latter:

Triton said:Does this book also cover the LEK Lunar Expeditionary Complex proposed by Valentin Glushko using Vulkan? Or does it end with the cancellation of the N1 project?
This thread should be redirected to "Russian moonlander" because the LK moonlander and other designs for Soviet moonlanders have been covered in that thread.
