I was trolling through the Houston Library catalog and noticed the following:

The Iron Eagle [CAS sound recording] : wartime "buddies" recall the exploits of Eddie Rickenbacker.

and

Rickenbacker [CAS sound recording] : World War I ace Eddie Rickenbacker reviews his exploits.

I'm not sure if they are the same thing as they have different call numbers. Regardless, I reserved them both.

One sounds like him talking about his exploits, the other sounds like it's others talking about him.

Both were from 1969.

Has anyone heard these and if so are they worth listening to? What kind of significance do they have?

Thanks.
