EARTH SHINE BY ANNE MORROW LINDBERGH AND CHARLES A. LINDBERGH - SIGNED BY VARIOUS MEMBERS OF THE LINDBERGH FAMILY AND OTHERS AS A LIMITED SPECIAL EDITION. BOOK IS NUMBER 286 OUT OF 601. BROCHURE OBTAINED AT FOUNDTION EVENT IS INCLUDED AS A BONUS! Earth Shine (1969) by Anne Morrow Lindbergh is a collection of reflective essays contrasting the natural, wild beauty of African wildlife with the technological advancement of human spaceflight at Cape Kennedy. Critics and readers often praise her reflective, poetic prose, with the work offering insights into the relationship between nature and human progress. Key Aspects of Earth Shine: Structure: The book is divided into two main, separate narratives. Part 1: Africa: Lindbergh shares experiences from a trip to Africa, focusing on wildlife and the experience of sleeping in nature. Part 2: Space: She describes her experience at a VIP launching at Cape Kennedy, contemplating the "earth shine" viewed from space. Themes: The essays focus on environmental conservation, the awe of technology, and humanity's place within the natural world. Reviews: The book is generally well-regarded as a contemplative, thin volume suitable for reading in one sitting. The book is considered a unique blend of nature writing and thoughtful commentary on the modern age. 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.

Description de la boutique

Individual book collector for more than 20 years. As I live in the San Francisco Bay Area (an enthusiastic literary market), prominent authors frequently visit local bookstores. I'm a professional environmental consultant, but my passion is reading so I frequently attend author lectures and bookstore signings. Most of the books I list were signed in my presence and in some cases, I include proof such as event fliers or photographs. Signature authenticity is absolutely guaranteed.
