The Spirit of St. Louis Teacher Guide

This teacher guide prepares you to teach high school students The Spirit of St. Louis using the notebook method. It was developed by Rosalie J. Slater to commemorate the 60th Anniversary of Lindbergh’s flight. Walter S. Ross in The Last Hero: Charles A. Lindbergh, quoted him as saying, ” …I learned that if his civilization is to continue, modern man must direct the material power of his science by the spiritual truths of his God.” Illustrated by a copy of the 1927 New York Times front page, the teacher guide traces the chronology of the story, augmenting with quotes from other sources and finishing with the Foreword to Lindbergh’s book We by Myron T. Herrick, U.S. Ambassador to France.
