Book Reviews of My Faraway Home: An American Family's WWII Tale of Adventure and Survival in the Jungles of the Philippines
Book Review: Stories from WWII
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a marvelous book and makes for fascinating reading. Gave me pause to reflect and wonder if I would have the strength to endure a similar hadrship. WWII was such a long time ago and it shaped the lives of so many people around the world. It is great that there are some really worthy movies available to educate the young people about sacrifices made by their grandparents (I should say great-grandparents) generation.
