Description: Gift From the Sea Author: LINDBERGH, Anne Morrow Title: Gift From the Sea Publication: New York: Pantheon, (1955) Edition: First Edition Description: Hardcover. Octavo, 127pp. First printing (unstated). A very near fine copy, but for very gentle offsetting at the front endpapers from a laid-in clipping, a tiny abrasion to the top edge of the front board, and one corner just slightly bumped. In a near fine dust jacket, gently sunned on the spine (as about always), with very minor rubbing to corners. This copy SIGNED by Anne Morrow Lindbergh on the title page and dated in February 1977. Laid-in is a clipping of brown paper which contains Lindbergh's address ("Scott's Cove" in Darien, CT); now retained separately in an archival sleeve. Presumably, the owner mailed this book to Lindbergh for her autograph, and the author obliged. A major bestseller, this collection of essays was the result of Lindbergh's reflections on American womanhood, and society at large, prompted by walks on the beach in Florida and Connecticut. It also served to restore her nationwide reputation in the wake of her (and her husband Charles's) pro-German attitudes and statements through the beginning of World War II. Quite uncommon signed. Near fine / near fine.
