Lindbergh
by A. Scott Berg
Review this book!
A biography of Charles Augustus Lindbergh, who on May 31, 1927, landed in Paris from New York after completing the first solo transatlantic flight. Upon returning to the U.S., Lindbergh became a national hero. The media's incessant pursuit of Lindbergh was something of a watershed episode in America's obsession with celebrity, an obsession which has permeated the culture throughout the 20th century. Anne Morrow Lindbergh provided Berg with access to both her and her husband's private papers. A New York Times Notable Book for 1998.

Media Reviews
"Often thrilling, but disturbingly opaque, Mr. Berg's new biography of Lindbergh turns that historic flight into a narrative tour de force--a cogent and thoroughly gripping account that conveys to the reader all the magic, danger and courage of the young pilot's achievement."
