About the author

Anne Morrow Lindbergh was born in 1906. She married Charles Lindbergh in 1929 and became a noted aviator in her own right, eventually publishing several books on the subject and receiving several aviation awards. Gift from the Sea, published in 1955, earned her international acclaim. She was inducted into the National Aviation Hall of Fame, the National Women’s Hall of Fame, and the Aviation Hall of Fame of New Jersey. War Within and Without, the penultimate installment of her published diaries, received the Christopher Award in 1980. Mrs. Lindbergh died in 2001 at the age of ninety-four.

Not to be confused with her daughter Anne Lindbergh.

Reviews

[Elizabeth Thorpe]

This isn't by Anne Morrow Lindbergh. It's by her daughter Anne, who mostly published children's books.

[Carolyn M Johnson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great little book of poetic gems by Anne Lindbergh (also known as Anne Spencer Lindbergh and Anne Lindbergh-Perrin, actually the daughter of Charles and Anne Morrow Lindbergh)

Note this example: "The meaning of life, like the cat, has its haunts and habits... even its mysteries..." page 72)

[Kimberly · Rating 5 out of 5]

Just a quick note on this listing - the author of this collection of poems is NOT Anne Morrow Lindbergh but Anne (Spencer) Lindbergh (being Anne Morrow's daughter).

[Peggy · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is actually a book written by Anne Morrow Lindbergh’s daughter Anne Spencer Lindbergh...it’s hard to rate a book of poetry but on the whole I liked most of the poems and loved many...
