Book Description
Jennie Liston's memoir is a depiction of a life that is fully lived and is truer than fiction. It is a powerful testimony of God's grace in her life experiences, written with honesty and personal vulnerability. In a fast-moving life story, the author depicts events in war-torn Germany seen through the eyes of a child, running from bombs and the horrors of WWII, adjusting to a new life as an immigrant in America, and facing the struggles and challenges of her childhood and adolescence. Jennie exposes the reality of her relationships, the agony of separation from a spouse fighting in Viet Nam, and the difficulties of dealing with a returning stranger who has seen death all around him. It is also a historical description never before documented of the Soviet Union as it falls apart, as countries such as Ukraine gain their independence, told by a CIA analyst standing in the midst of Soviet crowds...of working in Moscow after the disintegration...and of returning to her native Latvia fifty years after the Iron Curtain closes, opening to a world no longer her place in the sun.

Book Description
An unbelievable survival story in the face of the Holocaust While the Holocaust rages, two very young brothers, Yoseph and Yitzhak, adopt false Christian identities and hide in the Aryan side of Polish cities and countryside. Their lives, as well as the lives of their parents, swing wildly between the terror of being apprehended by the cruel regime and collaborators of the Reich, to their desperate need to continue living "freely" outside the ghetto walls. They undergo an agonizing five and a half years, mostly in constant fear that their false identities will be exposed and their lives ended. "Courage and Grace" is the chilling story of one small family's bid for survival against the brutal Nazi occupation, aided by the courageous, uncompromising support of non-Jewish acquaintances and strangers all the way through to their rebirth in the new State of Israel.
