by Roxanne Cibuzar (Author)
Soldiers go off to fight wars, but what happens to the women they leave behind? Over the span of two years, Roxanne Cibuzar located women who knew and loved men who served in World War II, the Korean War, and Vietnam. She collected their untold stories and also asked about their "rules for life."
These amazing testaments are now compiled in Ordinary Women from Extraordinary Times.
Katie, Corrine, Clara, Betty, and Loni are unique, ranging in age from sixty-seven to ninety-five.
Their lives are history lessons on the unique eras in which they lived, but all their stories bring honor to the men who served to defend the United States.
In the end, over the course of her interviews, Roxanne began to realize each woman's life shared some common threads. Each woman had cultivated a heart for God. Their stories offer a glimpse into the past and into God's faithful care, even amid turmoil, loss, and war.
