We crave friendship and harbor no hate. But America can be a party to no permanent military alliance. It can enter into no political commitments, nor assume any economic obligations which will subject our decisions to any other than our own authority.

Charles Lindbergh Babe Ruth

Jack Dempsey Helen Wills & Gertrude Ederle

Lindbergh’s flight served as a bridge between tradition and modernity. John Ward wrote an essay, The Meaning of Lindbergh’s Flight, in which he looked at the impact of his flight on history:

“Lindbergh, in every remark about his flight and in his writings, resisted the tendency to exploit the flight as the achievement of an individual. He never said ‘I,’ he always said ‘We.’ But there was always the fact that his exploit was a victory of the machine over nature. There was another aspect, one in which the public celebrated the machine and the society of which it was a product. By calling Lindbergh a pioneer, people could read into history the need [for] turning back to the frontier past. Yet people could also read history in terms of progress into the future. They did this by emphasizing the machine involved in Lindbergh’s flight.”
