How a village and its people showed us goodness - Rated
We will be discussing this book among others at the Colby College Great Books Institute this August . The theme of our selections is "Do Unto Others". I have just finished reading Lest Innocent Blood Be Shed and cannot praise it enough. Beautifully written and with with a powerful message in light of current wars. Nonviolence must have deep roots and strong branches before it can bear the fruit of Le Chambon - a village which rescued Jewish children during World War Two. Pastor Trocme and Edouard Theis believed that nonviolence involves preparation and organization -Page 35 -We might begin to prepare now by learning about these good people (French Huguenots) who lived their faith . To them all lives were precious. I hope others will read and review this book and share their thoughts with us. tjl@ultranet.com Thelma J Lebeaux
heartfelt story of love and courage in the face of atrocity - Rated
This is a wonderful book that plants a seed of hope...regardless of the hatred and prejudice that occur in this world, love and compassion can make a difference.
excellent book - Rated
Philip Hallie captured some of the goodness that can come out of a war.
During WWII, the community of Le Chambon helped Jews escape Vichy
France. After reading about all of the horror that occurred
during WWII, it was nice to read a book about the hope and love
that was never lost during the war. I highly recommend this book to any avid reader.
Your spirits will be lifted after reading a book like this.
Once you start the book, you won't be able to put it down until it is finished.
