From The Shadow Of Death-Stories of POWs By J M. Heslop & Dell R. Van Orden

From The Shadow Of Death-Stories of POWs  By J M. Heslop & Dell R. Van Orden   350 pages
 In the early months of 1973 peoples of the free world watched with gratitude and thanksgiving as American prisoners of war in Viet Nam were released.  After years of captivity-the longest of any prisoners of any war in United States history-they returned home with fascinating and moving stories.
 From the Shadow of Death tells the gripping stories of eight of these former prisoners of war, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  It tells of miracles, of courage, of prayers being answered, of trial that have tested the faith of both the prisoners and their families at home.
 Included are the stories of Major Robert D. Jeffrey, Captain Larry J. Chesley, Major Jay R. Jensen, Commander David “Jack” Rollins, Major Jay C. Hess, civilian Charles Willis, Commander Dale Osborne, and Captain Lynn Beens.
 In addition, the authors have interviewed the Latter-day Saint wife of another returnee; the man who helped make arrangements for the repatriation of all returning POWs; the LDS chaplain who met them as they arrived in the Philippines; and the wife of a man who is still listed as missing in action.
 From the Shadow of Death is a faith-building story for everybody-a story that all will want to read.
