“HEROIC STORIES” An inspiring collection of real-life stories. Chosen by Anthony Masters. Each of the people in this book has had their life shaped by extraordinary events or circumstances. Some have looked for adventure, like Charles Lindbergh, the aviator. Others have felt a strong sense of vocation, like Mother Teresa and Martin Luther King. But there are also those who, quite by chance, have found themselves in difficult situations that put their inner resources of courage to the test. Twenty-three heroic stories are told including those of: Archibald Gracie (Titanic survivor), Christy Brown, Dian Fossey, Charles Lindbergh, Anne Frank, Martin Luther King, Jr., Captain Robert F. Scott, and Nelson Mandela. 1994, first edition, softbound book. 253 pages, many illustrations, no photos, maps or index.
