Bring Me a Unicorn: Diaries and Letters of Anne Morrow Lindbergh 1922-1928

Author: Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Stars: 5
Review by: Shapoppa


After reading The Aviator's Wife and Gift from the Sea, I wanted to dig deeper into the fascinating life and times of Anne Morrow Lindbergh. I'm glad I chose to read The Aviator's Wife prior to the first of Morrow-Lindbergh's five diaries because the diary might have been less captivating in this day and age had Benjamin's book not been written. Bring Me a Unicorn covers the period of her life from the late teens through college age and the moment she meets her future husband, American aviator Charles Lindbergh. The book offers a peek into the world of high society and introduces you to a young woman who not only lacks confidence, but is uncertain about her future until a confident, heroic young aviator enters her life and changes its course forever.
