دانلود کتاب The wartime journals of Charles A. Lindbergh

These journals cover the years 1938 to 1945. In that disastrous stretch of time Charles Lindbergh responded to crises with active intellectual curiosity and extraordinary insight.

He indicated his awareness of the harsh realities that awaited a stricken and shattered postwar Europe.
