THE AIRMAN AND THE CARPENTER The Lindbergh Kidnapping and the Framing of Richard Hauptmann Gripping and Horrifying By Ludovic Kennedy The airman was Charles A Lindbergh, "Lucky Lindy," the quintessential American hero. The carpenter was Bruno Richard Hauptmann, an illegal alien from Germany with a criminal record. They came together in "the crime of the century" - the 1932 kidnapping and murder of the Lindbergh baby. Fifty years after Hauptmann's conviction, Ludovic Kennedy, in this thorough account of the investigation and trial, reveals a shocking array of perjury, cover up, manufactured evidence, inept legal work, and a lynch mob atmosphere. His compelling book leaves the reader with grave doubts about American criminal justice, and little doubt as to the wrongful convictioon of Hauptmann.
