Much more than a story of captivity...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Without blowing his own horn, the author exposes how to be a good human being. The story is also captivating, but what is behind the story is the good part. Tom Sutherland is an amazing human being, to have undergone captivity at the hands of terrorists, yet come out of it a better person. Jean Sutherland's parts fill in the corners well, both write very well.
Helpful in understanding the ethnic complexity of Lebanon.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 28 years ago
I was fortunate enough to hear Thomas Sutherland speak almost immediately after his release, and several times since. He has always been consistent in his praise for Terry Anderson, his acceptance of his internment as "his own risk," his lack of bitterness for 6.5 years away from family and his support for the people of Lebanon. The book genuinely reflects the man.
