<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Reeve offers a moving memoir of caring for her mother, Anne Morrow Lindbergh, as she became debilitated and alienated from the world. Reeve's anguish and anxieties about her responsibilities are only part of the story, as beautifully written passages capture moments of humor and happiness and illuminate the profound, inviolable connection between mother and daughter.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>In 1999 Anne Morrow Lindbergh, the famed aviator and author, moved from her home in Connecticut to the farm in Vermont where her daughter, Reeve, and Reeve's family live.</b> Mrs. Lindbergh was in her nineties and had been rendered nearly speechless years earlier by a series of small strokes that also left her frail and dependent on others for her care. As an accomplished author who had learned to write in part by reading her mother's many books, Reeve was deeply saddened and frustrated by her inability to communicate with her mother, a woman long recognized in her family and throughout the world as a gifted communicator. <br> <i>No More Words</i> is a moving and compassionate memoir of the final seventeen months of Reeve's mother's life. Reeve writes with great sensitivity and sympathy for her mother's plight, while also analyzing her own conflicting feelings. Anyone who has had to care for an elderly parent disabled by Alzheimer's or stroke will understand immediately the heartache and anguish Reeve suffered and will find comfort in her story.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Meg Laughlin <i>The Miami Herald</i> Intimate [and] down-to-earth...funny and engaging...honest.<br><br>Nancy Jacobsen <i>Rocky Mountain News</i> Lindbergh's youngest daughter delves into her mother's final two years, detailing the poignant, melancholic, and sometimes humorous emotions she felt while caring for the elderly woman....A loving tribute to mother, author, and woman.<br>
