"We": The famous flier's own story of his life and his trans-Atlantic flight by Charles A. Lindbergh is an autobiography published in 1927. Just fifty-seven days after his historic solo flight from New York to Paris, Lindbergh delivered his account of the groundbreaking journey and the life that led to it. Rejecting a ghostwritten manuscript as inaccurate and false in tone, the twenty-five-year-old aviator painstakingly rewrote the entire book himself in longhand within three weeks, creating an immediate bestseller that captivated the world.
