Download or read book Fire Road written by Kim Phuc Phan Thi and published by NavPress. This book was released on 2017-10-03 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Get out! Run! We must leave this place! They are going to destroy this whole place! Go, children, run first! Go now! These were the final shouts nine year-old Kim Phuc heard before her world dissolved into flames—before napalm bombs fell from the sky, burning away her clothing and searing deep into her skin. It’s a moment forever captured, an iconic image that has come to define the horror and violence of the Vietnam War. Kim was left for dead in a morgue; no one expected her to survive the attack. Napalm meant fire, and fire meant death. Against all odds, Kim lived—but her journey toward healing was only beginning. When the napalm bombs dropped, everything Kim knew and relied on exploded along with them: her home, her country’s freedom, her childhood innocence and happiness. The coming years would be marked by excruciating treatments for her burns and unrelenting physical pain throughout her body, which were constant reminders of that terrible day. Kim survived the pain of her body ablaze, but how could she possibly survive the pain of her devastated soul? Fire Road is the true story of how she found the answer in a God who suffered Himself; a Savior who truly understood and cared about the depths of her pain. Fire Road is a story of horror and hope, a harrowing tale of a life changed in an instant—and the power and resilience that can only be found in the power of God’s mercy and love.
Book Synopsis The Con Man's Daughter by : Candice Curry
Download or read book The Con Man's Daughter written by Candice Curry and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2017-05-16 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Candice Curry was a little girl, she put her hand in her father's back pocket so that she wouldn't get lost in large crowds. Little did she know that as she followed him, he was plying his trade: conning people. Her family drove stolen cars, lived in stolen houses, and shopped with stolen credit cards. Drug use was regular, as were visits from strange people who were trying to track her father down. Though she eventually cut ties with her father, Candice could not ignore the scars that were left from her childhood. This is her story, one steeped in secrets but one that, ultimately, led her to a place of forgiveness and freedom. As she struggles to understand her criminal father, as well as her own imperfect life, Candice comes to realize that we are not defined by our circumstances but rather by how we react to those circumstances. She's found peace in the knowledge that God doesn't love us because we're perfect--but because he is.

The Last Green Valley is a compelling and inspiring story of heroism and courage in the dark days at the end of World War II." --Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author From the author of the #1 bestseller Beneath a Scarlet Sky comes a new historical novel inspired by one family's incredible story of daring, survival, and triumph. In late March 1944, as Stalin's forces push into Ukraine, young Emil and Adeline Martel must make a terrible decision: Do they wait for the Soviet bear's intrusion and risk being sent to Siberia? Or do they reluctantly follow the wolves--murderous Nazi officers who have pledged to protect "pure-blood" Germans? The Martels are one of many families of German heritage whose ancestors have farmed in Ukraine for more than a century. But after already living under Stalin's horrifying regime, Emil and Adeline decide they must run in retreat from their land with the wolves they despise to escape the Soviets and go in search of freedom. Caught between two warring forces and overcoming horrific trials to pursue their hope of immigrating to the West, the Martels' story is a brutal, complex, and ultimately triumphant tale that illuminates the extraordinary power of love, faith, and one family's incredible will to survive and see their dreams realized.

Book Synopsis The Truth Beneath a Scarlet Sky by : Natasha Tristan
Download or read book The Truth Beneath a Scarlet Sky written by Natasha Tristan and published by UB Tech. This book was released on with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The action-packed life of a hero Pino Lella with dispelling doubts Pino Lella was an Italian boy who challenged his age, overcame the crisis he faced, and went down to the rescue at the age of seventeen. He was very familiar with the Alps and its surroundings from his childhood and even defeated the weather to save the Jews from the war. With this book, you will come to know more clearly about a personality who is a hidden segment of Italian history who fought bravely till the end. That’s Pino Lella that got to be known by everyone through Mark T. Sullivan’s Beyond a Scarlet Sky. Some confusion arose with that version, but also here are the findings of Sullivan’s search for the reality about it. When taken back to the mirror of another aspect, this looks like a guide to see Pino Lella as a mere representation of that period and to understand many of the things of that time. Pino Lella was also instrumental in diverting the direction of the war by transforming himself into the role of loyal to the aid of Hitler in Italy. It was done because all are aware that Hitler was the main strategist of World War II. What helped him to change into that disguise was his experience in driving and knowledge of various languages. It was his mental strength that held him in all this. He was a witness to many tragic events. Through his eventful life, an era and his experiences like a thriller are discussed here. It is possible to trace that period and that brave hero through some of the missing strings of the war.

Later on, he falls in love with a beautiful woman named Anna in whom he finds solace from the horrors of the war.

After being injured in combat, Pino is recruited as the interpreter and personal driver for General Hans Leyers, Hitler’s left hand who was assigned to oversee the Nazi operations in Italy.

Book Synopsis Remembrances and other Observations by : don david Calderon y Aroesty
Download or read book Remembrances and other Observations written by don david Calderon y Aroesty and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-05-03 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflections by Dr. Sofija Grandakovska, Professor, CUNY, on the book Remembrances and Other Observations This book, first and foremost, is committed to the importance of remembering the past and its careful preservation at the gates of oblivion. The importance is emphasized in plural form: “remembrances.” It is not one story; it is more than fifty varied short stories. The author recognizes the multilayered and polyvalent existence of remembering. It is personal and collective. It is mythical, genealogical, literary, historical, and anthropological. Short stories were written as prose poems. Although we cannot qualify these prose forms as typical short stories in a literary genre context, they qualify as short stories because they each reflect an event, history, and truth about the overarching event: the Holocaust. The author, don david Calderon y. Aroesty, chooses poetic prose to guide the readers through the tragic dimensions of the Holocaust by cherry-picking some exceptional heroes, heroines, and gratifying events through the duality of poetry and prose without solid metrical patterns but with rhythmic moderation of poetic expression. Remembrances come alive as a coherent and legitimate whole. No description of the criminality, suffering, and sadness would ever be sufficient. The author does not forget the bleakness and the horrors while challenging all of us to remember the shining lights, the occasional rays of human sunshine, extraordinary courage, and amazing bravery exhibited by some. The hybrid linguistic form becomes clear and legitimate, highlighted at the very beginning of the volume in the qualifications section where he asks the question and expresses his suspicion: How dare me, dare to write about the Holocaust? Who am I? The first philosophical question, which he answers with a dare to all of us to each undertake to study, learn, and write about the Holocaust. This is where the message of the book is strongly positioned. It is a message of deep humanistic, anthropological, and historical significance. Dr. Grandakovska teaches at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice Department of Anthropology where her areas of specialization are comparative literature and interdisciplinary studies in the Holocaust and Jewish history. She served as one of the advisers to the author’s book of remembrances.
