Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption
by Laura Hillenbrand
This is an incredibly moving account of one man's life journey and how world events impacted not only him but those around him. Most of the WWII history I learned in school invariably centered on the European theatre. As I read Louie's story I was horrified by what he and others experienced in the Pacific battles and captivity. These stories, as hard as they are to hear or read, must be told to keep history from being repeated.
It was important to know who Louie was before, during and after his time as a POW to understand how he reached the point in his life where forgiveness was freely given by him to his captors.
To say I 'enjoyed' reading this book is to attach a sense of lightness to it when in fact it was difficult and at the same time important to read the various accounts of what occurred in the POW camps.
