In 1939; tiny Finland waged war-the kind of war that spawns legends-against the mighty Soviet Union; and yet their epic struggle has been largely ignored. Guerrillas on skis; heroic single-handed attacks on tanks; unfathomable endurance; and the charismatic leadership of one of this century's true military geniuses-these are the elements of both the Finnish victory and a gripping tale of war.

Finding a Fellow TravelerBy dragonflyAfter reading quotes by Barbara Brown Taylor in a couple of other books; I checked out her book on and found it fascinating reading. I ordered the book and found it to be my own spiritual journey in another life. I couldn't put it down. It is full of expressions of her faith experience that speaks to my own. If you find yourself on the outskirts of the mainstream denominations of the Christian faith; you may find Taylor's book helpful in describing your own parameters of your faith journey.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
