Summary
Drawing on newly available documentary evidence as well as on her own investigative research, Milton offers us an intimate portrait of Charles and Anne Morrow Lindbergh. Beginning with Charles's Midwestern childhood in Minnesota, and with the story of Anne's very different childhood experience as the daughter of a wealthy Eastern banking family, Loss of Eden traces Lindy's career as an aviator and Anne's as a writer.--From publisher description.
