Comments: Anne Morrow Lindbergh, writer, National Women's Hall of Fame inductee and American public figure known for her marriage to aviator Charles Lindbergh, wrote this touching book in the early 1950s while on a vacation to Captiva Island in Florida. Using metaphors of the beach and various shells she found, she reflects on her life and experience, and more broadly the experience of 20th century American women. A Kirkus Review from 1955 describes the work as "an intensely personal book in which, nonetheless, every thoughtful woman will find a reflection of her own half- realized frustrations and answers....A beautiful book." A HuffPost review from 2015 states, "the book is now 59 years old and is as fresh as the morning dew and as glorious as the beautiful sea." It is clear why this book has sold over 3 million copies!
