It is the author’s sincere hope and desire that the reader will come to understand and realize the importance and significance of the book’s title and that those who read this book will find a clearer and perhaps deeper understanding of faith in God.
The author takes us through his father, Wilhelm Senior’s eyes to the eastern front of World War II. He relates how Wilhelm Senior’s faith in God helps him cope with the unbelievable circumstances of a medic in field hospitals in WWII. Author Wilhelm uses the narrative approach to make us a part of the many scenes of his story and that of his father.
The importance of spiritual values and how they play into one’s behavior in stressful situations is a deeply thought provoking element of this book.
The accounts are woven together with a back-drop of un-relenting faith in God, who intervened many times.
There is something here for the historian and for students and observers of the human condition as well.
