There was place for compassion when conditions allowed it. Evil within the hearts of some is very real; and was disturbing when the story demanded its indusion. Even so, we must deal with negative situations and evil people in everyday life. This dark side provided the perspective that it is meeting these very challenges which builds our strength to overpower the adversary's efforts to put us in his shadow and destroy us. Success in this never~ceasing battle between good and evil is the ultimate in what is Right and Good. This story helps us to know how and why. Adding even greater depth to the colorful descriptions by the author, sites and scenarios come alive for the reader through the detailed pencil and pen illustartions from renowned aviation artist Lonnie Ortega. Lon's highly~prized and detailed work of planes and pilots is in many private collections. often framed and matted in shadowbox format with historic insiznia and medals.
