The Secret Trail - A Story of Aliyah by Jim Bethea
I just finished reading a book that a friend of ours (and local Messianic pastor) wrote. I was thrilled with the book - it was written well, it grabs you and pulls you into the story quickly, and you just can't put the book down. It's a wonderful story about a bush pilot in the Canadian Pacific coastal mountain range who finds himself involved in a struggle to rescue and protect Jewish refugees as they are escaping Russia on their way to Israel. It's a fictional story based on many actual events that are woven into the story line. It's like a modern day "The Hiding Place" but in the Canadian wilderness. It's one of those books that is a faith-builder and a reality-shaker. I enjoy those. In fact, I finished the book in less than 2 days because I enjoyed it so much and I simply couldn't put it down. :~) This is a great "guy book". Women will enjoy the book too but there's something about an adventure story that guys really like, besides the majority of the characters are men and in today's world men need other strong men - even in fiction books. I think that DH and our boys will really enjoy this book! I encourage you to visit the Amazon website that is linked through the title of this message and if nothing else, read the reviews written there. It's well worth the $13 - and more! |
