Brand New Book

In The Name Of The People by Eduard Spehar, Paperback, New

                                          Summary:

In The Name Of The People is Eduard Spehar's father memoir of faith in a higher power and of faith in humanity.

It is the thought-provoking story of his love for his family, his love for his Croatian homeland, his conviction that man’s inhumanity to man could be overcome and that future generations would learn from these tragedies and choose not to repeat them.

The memoir begins with the dramatic trials and tribulations of Eduard’s own father as a POW of the Russian Red Army during WWI; his escape on foot over the Ural Mountains, his driving desire to get back to his family and his Croatian homeland.

Ironically, Eduard would gain a deeper insight into his father’s tribulations years later as he experienced his own sufferings at the close of WWII before finally escaping Communist Yugoslavia years later.

Communist Yugoslavia forced surviving opponents into death marches and slave labour camps where executed prisoners were dumped into mass graves and subterranean caves nightly.

Eduard Špehar was caught in this hellish whirlwind and managed to survive it all, living to share his experiences in this thought-provoking memoir.
