12 Inside Left Flap THE KIDNAPPING Inside Center column Why Lindbergh is famous Inside Right Flap Remarkable Events of Lindbergh’s Life In 1930 the Lindbergh baby was kidnapped. A ransom was paid and the bills eventually led to the arrest of Bruno Hauptmann. Revised to: During the 1930’s when most of the country was suffering from poverty because of the Great Depression, some people decided to turn to crime. Hauptmann was such a person. Lindbergh was wealthy and famous which made him a perfect target for such an enterprise.

13 What insight does McCullough give us regarding Lindbergh’s quote? "The evil of technology was not technology itself, Lindbergh came to see after the war, not in airplanes or the myriad contrivances of modern technical ingenuity but in the extent to which they can distance us from our better moral nature, or sense of personal accountability." David McCullough (Brave Companions)

14 A lesson to be applied: How are we using our advanced technology today? In today’s digital world and with the development & expansion of the social media, we have a moral responsibility to use these technological devices to advance the good for our society & the world.

15 3. Knowing history is no guarantee of good character, but it is nourished by a grounding in past examples.
