Reviews"[This biography] is confident, graceful and shrewd. It finds the flesh-and-bones woman at the center." -- The Plain Dealer "The author's deep research and ability to decipher the code beneath the veneer of Anne's books and diaries allow the reader insight into a woman who paid dearly for a remarkable adventure." -- Chicago Sun-Times "Lots of books are called definitive biographies, but this actually is one. . . . As writing acts go, this one is heroic." --David Gelernter, Commentary "A detailed and comprehensive portrait of the writer, the aviatrix and the loyal yet in some ways disappointed wife. . . . Anne Lindbergh's story proves to be well worth telling." -- The Wall Street Journal "A wonderful book, truly worthy of its subject."--Peggy Noonan "Poignant, haunting, and lyrical."--Ron Chernow, "[This biography] is confident, graceful and shrewd.
