Lindbergh began work on the book in 1939, and it went through 6 drafts before publication. His wife, Anne Lindbergh, offered her experience in helping Lindbergh to edit the book. Lindbergh's original book, "We", as an unsatisfactory product that was rushed to market in July 1927. He had only 3 weeks to work on that book, and was never satisfied with the product. With years under his belt and 14 years under writing, The Spirit of St. Louis is a wonderful book masterfully told. Excellent book.

With years under his belt and 14 years under writing, The Spirit of St. Louis is a wonderful book masterfully told. Lindbergh’s first account of his transatlantic journey, titled “We,” was published shortly after the historic flight in 1927. Lindbergh was never happy with this rushed account of his journey, written largely by the publisher. His account of the journey, The Spirit of St. Louis, was published in 1953 and won the Pulitzer Prize for Autobiography in 1954. Charles’ wife, Anne Morrow Lindbergh, was a ghostwriter on the book, and its success is widely attributed to her writing skills. The Spirit of St. Louis is an autobiographical account by Charles Lindbergh about the events leading up to and including his 1927 solo trans-Atlantic flight in the Spirit of St. Louis, a custom-built, single engine, single-seat monoplane (Registration: N-X-211). The book was published on September 14, 1953, and won the Pulitzer Prize in 1954. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

Along with most of my fellow fliers, I believed that aviation had a brilliant future. Now we live, today, in our dreams of yesterday; and, living in those dreams, we dream again...." -- From "The Spirit of St. Louis" Charles A. Lindbergh captured the world's attention -- and changed the course of history -- when he completed his famous nonstop flight from New York to Paris in 1927. In "The Spirit of St. Louis," Lindbergh takes the reader on an extraordinary journey, bringing to life the thrill and peril of trans-Atlantic travel in a single-engine plane. Eloquently told and sweeping in its scope, Lindbergh's Pulitzer Prize-winning account is an epic adventure tale for all time. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
