A brilliant, thought~provoking reinterpretation of one of the bitterest rivalries in American history, Lindbergh vs. Roosevelt cuts through what James P. Duffy asserts are layers of misinformation to reveal a startling truth: that Charles Lindbergh was not a traitor, but a true American patriot who was silenced by a White House bent on his destruction. Inside you'll find facts about Lindbergh rarely mentioned today, including how Lindbergh: ~ spent time in Germany, not as a Nazi supporter, but as a highly effective spy for the United States government. ~worked tirelessly to improve the Air Corp's ability to defend the U.S. homeland before Germany could invent a bomber capable of attacking American cities. ~flew dozens of combat missions during World War II, dive~bombing enemy positions, sinking barges, and even shooting down an enemy Japanese fighter. ~received numerous awards after the war, including the Pulitzer Prize for his autobiography. ~helped invent the perfusion pump, a medical device that opened the way for organ transplantation. "In this excellent book, Duffy successfully restores the honor that properly belongs to Lindbergh and draws a more skeptical, and accurate, portrayal of Roosevelt. If you love reading twentieth~century American history, you'll love this book." ~THOMAS E. WOODS JR., author of The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History., Books<

Was aviation pioneer and popular American hero Charles A. Lindbergh a Nazi sympathizer and anti-Semite? Or was he the target of a vicious personal vendetta by President Roosevelt? In Lindbergh vs. Roosevelt, author James Duffy tackles these questions head-on, by examining the conflicting personalities, aspirations, and actions of Franklin D. Roosevelt and Charles A. Lindbergh. Painting a politically incorrect portrait of both men, Duffy shows how the hostility between these two American giants divided the nation on both domestic and international affairs. From canceling U.S. air mail contracts to intervening in World War II, Lindberg and Roosevelt’s clash of ideas and opinions shaped the nation’s policies here and abroad. Insightful, and engaging, Lindbergh vs. Roosevelt reveals the untold story about two of history’s most controversial men, and how the White House waged a smear campaign against Lindbergh that blighted his reputation forever. 20th century,americas,biographical,biographies,biographies and history,biography and history,history,history and theory,leaders and notable people,modern (16th-21st centuries) Biographies, Regnery Publishing<
