From a true master of YA nonfiction, author of the acclaimed THE FAMILY ROMANOV, discover the dark side of Charles Lindbergh in a riveting biography of one of Americas most celebrated heroes, and most complicated, troubled men.
First human to cross the Atlantic via airplane; one of the first American media sensations; Nazi sympathizer and anti-Semite; loner whose baby was kidnapped and murdered; champion of Eugenics, the science of improving a human population by controlled breeding; tireless environmentalist. Charles Lindbergh was all of the above and more. Here is a rich, multi-faceted, utterly spellbinding biography about an American hero who was also a deeply flawed man. In this time where values Lindbergh held, like white Nationalism and America First, are once again on the rise, THE RISE AND FALL OF CHARLES LINDBERGH is essential reading for teens and history fanatics alike.

QUOTATIONS IN THIS BOOK

You will notice that some of the quotations in this book are in present tense. This is how Charles Lindbergh wrote them himself. Often, when recording past events in his journals or memoirs, he recalled them as if they were happening in real time, allowing his readers to get inside his head during actual moments of inspiration, decision, or debate. In these instances, I have chosen to italicize his thoughts rather than placing them within quotation marks. It should be noted that none of the internal dialogue found in these pages has been invented. All of it comes directly from Lindberghs firsthand accounts. The liberal use of both his and Anne Lindberghs real words to reveal their thoughts and feelings, observations and conversations will, I hope, allow readers to form a deeper connection with them.
