Defiant Courage: A WWII Epic of Escape and
Endurance by Astrid Karlsen Scott, Tore Haug - FIVE STARS
A story of overrun Norway’s persistent iron will
for unshackled freedom.
I found this book to be hauntingly captivating,
well researched, and laced with interesting photos.
This is a true life saga from the Viking nation
that keeps suspense moving at a breathtaking pace from beginning to
end.
Excerpt:
“If there is anyone who still wonders why this
war is being fought—let him look to Norway. If there is anyone who
has any delusions that this war could have been averted—let him
look to Norway. And, if there is anyone who doubts of the democratic
will to win, again I say, let him look to Norway.” —Franklin D.
Roosevelt, President of the United States of America, September 16,
1942.
