Review:
I found a 1955 printing of this book in an old waterfront cabin and was struck by the care with which the previous owner had read it. Eve (the name inscribed inside the front cover and then again above the heading for chapter 3) made pencil marks on nearly every paragraph of the book, underlining a phrase, highlighting many passages with strong vertical marks, scratching out some words that she seems to have found superfluous and even x-ing out whole sections that apparently missed their mark with her altogether. Two rusting paper clips isolate several pages, absent any marking at all. Anne Morrow Lindbergh's lyrical words are still relevant and presage so many of the themes of today's most popular books: simplicity, peaceful solitude, caring for the soul, a woman finding her place in society and life. I heard that the woman who had lived in the cabin had actually passed away some time before. Thank you, Eve, for your gift... from the sea.
From the Inside Flap:
n time for the holiday season--in an appropriate and enticing new format, and with a striking new jacket--a spectacular hardcover reissue of one of the most beloved books of our time. Since it was first published in 1955, Gift from the Sea has enlightened and offered solace to readers on subjects from love and marriage to peace and contentment.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New; some shelfwear. 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!.
