DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. VOLUME MAI SFOGLIATO. PICCOLE ROTTURE ALLA SOVRACCOPERTA, QUALCHE PIEGHETTA, LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO. 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.
