SAVED BY LOVE |

|
On June 14, 1965, Evelyn Guarino’s husband, Air Force Col.
Larry Guarino, was shot down and captured in North Vietnam. He would be
held prisoner for almost eight years. In her just-released memoir, Evelyn tells the family’s side of the POW story. She draws us into the day-to-day efforts for survival she endured while raising four sons, campaigning for her husband’s release, and struggling to maintain hope in those very dark and uncertain times. She shares with the reader her carefully preserved letters to and from her husband. These intimate glimpses are a love story in themselves, revealing a never-failing faith in their bond to one another. But it is her riveting account of the ups and downs of those eight years that allows the reader to truly understand the importance of hope. She recounts the many times when it seemed the United States was close to securing the release of prisoners, only to fail repeatedly. She shares her anguish and draws a stark picture of the monumental emotional effort it took to regain her determination to never be without hope. |
