The Lindberghs rose early on December 31, 1935, in Liverpool’s harbor [having fled to England to escape from the pressures of living in America and because of threats on their lives]. It suddenly seemed as though this hegira might be for naught, as a frenzied gauntlet of photographers gathered at the gangplank. (Scott Berg, Lindbergh, Putnam [1998], p. 346.)
