Come un romanzo, questo libro narra la vita di un protagonista della storia dell'aviazione. Dalla solitaria giovinezza di Lindbergh al trionfo della prima traversata atlantica, dalla celebrità alla tragedia del rapimento del figlio, dalla scelta isolazionista di fronte allo scoppio della seconda guerra mondiale, alla passione per la biologia e alle campagne ambientaliste degli ultimi anni. Lindbergh was the first solo pilot to cross the Atlantic non-stop from New York to Paris, in 1927. This awe-inspiring fight made him the most celebrated men of his day-a romantic symbol of the new aviation age. However, tragedy struck in 1932, where his baby was kidnapped and found dead. The unbearable trial forced Lindbergh into exile in England and France. However, his soon fasciation and involvement with the Nazi regime, resulted in public opinion turning against him. His life was at the forefront of pioneering research in aeronautics and rocketry. Also, his wife became one of the century's leading feminist voices. This biography explores the golden couple who have been considered American royalty. Descrizione bibliografica Titolo: Lindbergh, l'aquila solitaria Titolo originale: Lindbergh Autore: A.

1920ref. 126251N.p.: N.p. 1920. Original Art-Nouveau style illustration of actress Bebe Daniels painted on pressboard circa early 1920s noted as starring in "Adam and Eve" with Jack Holt. There is no record of either Daniels or Holt starring in a film either titled or with the working title of "Adam and Eve" nor could we find any news sources for a proposed production with that title. The only two films starring both Daniels and Holt are "Ducks and Drakes" 1921 and "North of the Rio Grande" 1922. A beautifully executed illustration of the young actress likely as lobby art for a silent film theater. Bebe Daniels was a noted actress singer dancer writer and producer who appeared in over 230 films over her 50 year career in film. Daniels began her career as a child actress in silent films and later became a star in musicals such as "Rio Rita" 1929 directed by Luther Reed and co-starring John Boles. 17.75 x 25 inches pressboard 1/2 inch thick. Very Good with five screw holes a chip to the lower left corner and a crack to the upper left corner mended on the verso with paper tape and cello tape. N.p. unknown books

1894ref. 5648Lacon Illinois 1894. Handmade baby book on watercolor paper stitched at spine measuring 200 x 160mm and slipped into a folded sheet measuring 250 x 170mm. External wrap with a lovely original watercolor floral with the name Geraldine; tender with splitting along foldline. Baby book comprised of 16 leaves of manuscript and original pen drawings to rectos only. Additional 4 pieces loosely inserted include: a handwritten card from Carrie Bartlett with The Baby poem pinned to footer two child hand-tracings at various ages and a description of Geraldine's sixth birthday party and gifts on State of Illinois Senate Chamber letterhead. A beautiful testament to the bond between a 19th century mother and her first daughter as well as to her own artistic care and creativity. Jennie Richmond's excitement over each of the early moments of her first daughter's life is lovingly documented in this unique manuscript. Detailed and lovely half and full title pages open the piece with Jennie using red ink to create floral and cupid motifs and lines for manuscript text; to this she adds in dark ink and entries about Geraldine's infancy. These are no less detailed than the illustrations. "Born at Lacon Ill on Tuesday the 18th Day of April 1893 at the hour of 1.20 O'clock A.M. unto Mr. and Mrs. Richmond" this initial entry also includes the autographs of the parents as well as the attending physician and nurse. She weighed "five pounds and one half." Geraldine's "first picture was taken at five and one half months by Grant Rose. Oil painting made by Jennie L. Fitch.First tooth when ten months old. Learned to creep forward when the metronome was put before her. First step July 7 when almost 13 months old. Plaster of Paris hand taken when 3 months old." Geraldine's first bath a lock of her hair her first ring -- these and so many other tiny moments are made monumental in this book. It becomes clear not only that Geraldine is adored but also that she is surrounded by art music and intellectual activity. Jennie's husband Elijah an attorney afforded them a comfortable lifestyle that could allow all this. Census records show that Jennie and Elijah went on to have three more children -- all sons. And on being widowed Jennie took up living with Geraldine in a single household. Geraldine by 1940 had become a music teacher with her own studio. A lovely unique and research rich piece touching on the history of maternity the history of infant education women's domestic lives women's education and art and genealogy among other fields.
