Jesus urges us to be “a light to the world.” Helen Donovan takes that command seriously, especially in the darkest of times. Helen’s journey through life ran parallel to the rise and fall of the Third Reich in Germany. Raised under Nazi tyranny, Helen experienced firsthand the terror of air raids and the sound of bombs falling outside. Despite fear and violence, Helen’s light never dimmed thanks to her faith. Her faith is now an inspiration as she shares both her most heartbreaking and heartwarming moments in A War Bride’s Journey. Helen reveals a time that may soon be forgotten as a whole generation slowly passes into eternity. She hopes to keep the memories alive and warn against the trap of dictatorship in the future. Leaning heavily on Jesus, Helen shares her story—or, perhaps, “His-story”—inspiring others to remain strong in adversity with God’s help.

Carefree and beautiful, Peggy Yeats fell in love with an American serviceman stationed in Australia. After a hasty marriage in Queensland, Peggy's beau Hart was shipped off to war. During his absence, she gave birth to Diana Marie, the author who wrote this biography of her mother's life. When the war ended in 1945, the Australian wives of American servicemen received free passage to the United States to be reunited with their husbands whom they hadn't seen in years. Peggy, Diana, and hundreds of other Australian brides boarded the S.S. Lurline for the long voyage to the states. Peggy and Hart were reunited in San Francisco and the new family boarded a train to Wichita, Kansas, where they would live with Hart's parents until they could earn a living. Peggy found life in the United States difficult and longed to return to Australia. Weaving historical detail into the narrative, this poignant biography provides a vivid account of the life of one of more than 12,000 Australian war brides and of her journey to return her homeland. Dunny Mann's Picnic captures the feelings and thoughts of one woman's struggles and triumphs.

The worst war in Europe is finally over in May, 1945, and after dancing in the streets of London, it's time to build a future people never thought they would have. The "war brides," who married American servicemen during the war, will begin their journeys across the Atlantic to be reunited with their husbands. As they board the great ships like the "Queen Mary," they have over a week to calm their anxieties about how they will be received in their new homeland. They are leaving everything dear to them - their country, their home, their family and their friends. With only small suitcases, they look forward to a long life with the men they love. Katie, Heidi and Jenny are three such brides. They have become women during the course of the war on the strength of their friendships, and now their bravery will take them on a much different journey.

"In a stunning tribute to his wife of 45 years, Michael Forrester's Tsuchino, My Japanese War Bride is a compelling narrative that gives readers history and insight into the little-known and understudied story of Japanese war brides in America. Before leaving to serve in the US military in the occupation of Japan, New York-born Irish Catholic Forrester was cautioned by his grandmother to not return home with a Japanese bride! Fortunately, Michael Forrester did not heed the warning and in 1958, he married Tsuchino Matsuo ? a strong-willed and determined woman who confounds any stereotypes readers might have had about Japanese war brides. Michael and Tsuchino's story of love transcends cultural and language barriers at a time in American history when marriage between two different races was a rare occurrence." ? Regina F.

Nestled on the British Columbia coast, the community of Powell River sent several Canadian men and women overseas to fight in the World War II. When all was said and done, more than forty war bride families made their home in Powell River and the nearby town of Stillwater. War Brides and Rosies compiles these families amazing stories and artfully captures the history of Powell River and Stillwater, British Columbia, during World War II. Barbara Ann Lambert recounts how the Powell River Company became a major player in war production as local girls became Rosies of the north, assembling planes for Boeing of Canada as well as running the largest pulp and paper mill in western Canada. Through their monthly newsletter, the company also became a social network. It included correspondence from Powell Rivers service men and women stationed around the world and news on overseas marriages. Using this resource, as well as accounts from war brides and their families, Lambert shows how these women influenced the communities and helped change the perspective of womens roles in Canadian society. Full of vivid detail, War Brides and Rosies is an important contribution to the local history of these Canadian communities.
