" A welcome, new insight into an intriguing couple as they moved through a remarkable era in history." -- Francis French, bestselling author of Falling to Earth "Astounding.Hansen uses one of the most famous 20th-century marriages to reveal significant new material about the most violent, turbulent era of history. Original, entertaining, and important." -- Derek Leebaert, author of Unlikely Heroes "No marital relationship born in twentieth-century America deserves a new, incisive look more than that of Charles and Anne Morrow Lindbergh. James Hansen has delivered a superb and nuanced portrait of their confounded partnership, doing justice both to the individuals and the complex historical record." -- Steven P. Gietschier, American historian, author of Baseball: The Turbulent Midcentury Years.

"The character of these romantic heroes is mysterious; only a great love could have navigated the storms of their complicated marriage. The magic of this dual portrait is the light these lovers shed on each other. Hansen's compassionate, wise book has provided a vital illumination." -- Daniel Mark Epstein, author of The Lincolns: Portrait of a Marriage, and Constellations: Collected Poems "A vividly written and meticulously researched joint biography of the superstar celebrity couple that were akin to American Royalty for much of the 20th Century. Drawn to each other by their shared love of aviation, which never abated, the Lindberghs were a team extraordinaire.This is American history at its very finest. Highly recommended!!" -- Douglas Brinkley, Katherine Tsanoff Brown Chair in Humanities and Professor of History, Rice University, author of American Moonshot: John F. Kennedy and the Great Space Race "Creating this book required risky engagement of a complex of dimensions, both historical and personal--the riskiest yet in Hansen's four decades of work.

Once again, he makes it look easy." -- Steven T. Corneliussen, author of the Substack The Self-Emancipator.
