Ugartsthal Oct 20, 2006
By Richard W. Ellis
This is an astonishing story of faith and survival. The story is well written with vivid descriptions of people, places and events. The author's clear recall of events amazed me and kept me reading with anticipation. This story will put your own life into perspective. The short and to the point chapters make for easy reading. Highly recommended.

Ugartsthal September, 1939 Dec 24, 2006
By Orson W. Black
It is a privilege of knowing Mr Rehbein for 45+ years not only as a man whom I worked for, but also as a teacher and friend. Mr Rehbein taught me to do my work, as humanly as possible, toward perfection.
His daughter and three sons have to be so proud of their Dad, especially knowing his childhood and teenage history. I envy them because I only wish I had known more about my Dad. His Faith, which sustained him during this tragic time, is a testament to a true believer. May God Bless Mr Rehbein and his Family. Charlie, I look forward to the continuation of your life in the next book.,,, Orson w. Black

Charles Rehbein a 15 or 16 year old farm boy beaten and persacuted by Russian Soldiers on the eastern front as the Germans and Russians battled it out. Accused of being a spy, hauled off to Russia and put in prison for five years because he was a German Lutheran. Ugartsthal was a town on the Polish German border completely oblitered by the Russian advance into Germany in 1945. An excellent read.

Moving Story Aug 21, 2007
By Evelyn F. Troia
While reading this book can stir many different emotions in the reader, the one that I was left with was hope. Hope in the fact that more people can be as forgiving in their fellow human beings as Charles Rehbein was after all he was made to endure at the hand of mans own kind.
Believing that he was able to survive his hardships through his faith in God, Mr. Rehbein's personal story has meaning in it even for those whose faith may not be as strong.
I commend him for being able to share his memories and open feelings with all who are fortunate enough to read this very moving story of "one man's life as lived through World War II."
A book well written and well worth the read.

Central Europe Conflict May 24, 2007
By Bob Sonstroem
This informative memoir is set in Eastern Europe, a region historically noted for its interplay between Polish and German settlers. Beginning with the onset of World War II, this book describes the flights and imprisonments of teenage Charles Rehbein. Of particular interest is the characterization of German, Polish, Russian civilians and soldiers. Depictions are simple but insightful and make for an interesting read. Charles Rehbein is a gifted person, quite able to provide the reader with the terror, deprivation, discipline, and the hopes that were his.
