About This Item
New York: Harpercollins, 1993. First edition. Hardcover. New/new. New in new, price clipped dust jacket. First edition/ printing. Hardcover. 520 pp. with index. Illustrated with photos. The first dual biography of Charles and Anne Morrow Lindbergh. Beginning with Charles's Midwestern background and the story of Anne's very different childhood as the daughter of a weathy Eastern banking family, the book traces Lindy's career as an aviator and Anne's as a writer. Their 45-year marriage outlasted the traumatic kidnapping and murder of their infant child and the storm of criticism over their brief involvement with the America First movement on the eve of the U.S. entry inro World War II. "Loss of Eden" makes the 1932 kidnapping the central moment in its narrative and biographer Milton offers startling information about kidnapper Bruno Hauptmann and about Charles's own role in the case.
