First edition of this prophetic discourse on weapons of mass destruction. Association copy, inscribed by the author in the year of publication on the half-title page, "To Elizabeth Bartky with much affection, and best wishes from Charles A. Lindbergh August 1948." Near fine in a very good dust jacket. An excellent association.
In this Cold War-era essay, Lindbergh warns about the dangers of the Soviet Union and uncontrolled scientific advances without a moral compass acting as a guide. Of Flight and Life "sums up Lindbergh's concerns about the unchecked spread of scientific materialism and his fear that Americans were caught in a vicious circle in which our security today demanded regimentation and the development of weapons that would ruin us tomorrow" (Robert Wohl).
