Somehow, I stumbled on this book over Christmas holiday 2021, while visiting my family back home.

Told in the self-effacing manner common among the heroes of "The Greatest Generation", we are privileged to encounter this personal journey of a woman who began committing her story to paper ten years before publication for the sake of her sons because "I wished them to know, if ever difficult circumstances came into their lives, that their mother's God is still alive and very well, and His arm has never lost its ancient power!"… (meer)
