Destined to Survive; A Memoir of Tragedies and Triumphs

The story of the Liberian civil war may have fizzled out of the minds of those who were old enough to read about it or watch it on television. It was one of the many recorded atrocities of the twenty-first century when humans turned on themselves for no reason other than the vain pursuit of power. To the author, it was a period of loss, pain, anguish, disease, starvation, and a life of uncertainty. This memoir gives an account of how the author and his sister lost their parents in the civil war and survived under inexplicable circumstances when adults fully capable of fending for themselves did not. It simply shows that the strong hand of God keeps those who are helpless and shows up for them in ways and places that are beyond human explanations. You need to read this book to know how helpless humans are without the help of God. When left to our own devices, we will go to whatever extent to unleash pain and suffering on our fellow humans to get and keep power.
