Publisher's Summary:

Amelia Earhart once noted, "In my life I had come to realize that when things were going very well indeed it was just the time to anticipate trouble." And so it would be with America's other famous aviator. Charles Lindbergh had spent the first 30 years of his life escaping multiple plane crashes, becoming a hero across the world, and starting a family, but his luck ran out in an awful way in March of 1932. Tragically, the other major life event associated with Charles Lindbergh besides his historic transatlantic flight was "the crime of the century". On March 1, 1932, 20 month old Charles, Jr. was kidnapped right out of his crib from the family's home in rural East Amwell, New Jersey, and for 10 long weeks, the nation hoped and prayed in chorus with the distraught parents for his safe return.

Members Reviews:

Not well researched

Facts are omitted or incorrect. Very superficial reporting of an extremely controversial subject. The house servants were not named " Wheatley". Many, many books written on this subject...did we need another?

Contains quite a bit of information

For a small book on this subject it was quite informative. I've always been fascinated by this kidnapping and this gives a little more information about what was going on during the days preceding finding the child.
