I'm just chiming in here to point out these Bill Gunston books ("Fighters of the Fifties" and "Plane Speaking" are also excellent).  I've been re-reading them and they are so enjoyable, discussing the development and politics of this fraught period of hyper-rapid aviation development.

Almost nothing about military technic, but many colour high-quality photo about life in Soviet Union, 1952-1954 years.

 The spirit of the era is well spotted on these photos.
