"This is such a great book! Very gripping! Jeremiah Denton tells the story of his imprisonment for seven-and-a-half years in Vietnam, during the Vietnam War. It's fascinating reading about Mr. Denton's experiences, fellow prisoners, fears, triumphs, etc. Jeremiah Denton was extremely brave, and I think he's a Christian. He is certainly one of my heroes. Ages 15-16+"
"Holy Wow. This was an amazing book. Its not an autobiography really, its just about the time Jeremiah Denton spent as a POW. The amount of courage and fortitude to endure what he endured, to fight every time, to make them break him every time... it was amazing. Depressing, sad, made me cry, incredibly patriotic... It makes me glad for the freedoms we have and it makes me incredibly glad that our men are not in that kind of fight right now."
