Overview"When Kathie Jackson and her siblings prepared their parents' home for sale, they discovered a treasure-over one hundred and fifty letters with photos penned by their father, Cecil Turner, to his parents before and during World War II. In a biographical collection that connects readers with a pivotal period in our nation, Jackson shares letters her father faithfully wrote his parents during World War II, continuing through the post-war occupation of Germany. The letters paint a vivid portrait of the war by a Texas country boy whose faith in God carried him through nearly five years of separation, danger, and trials. The author includes details of Turner's division extracted from his journal and official records-details the soldier guarded from his family and was not permitted by wartime censors to include. So Great a Heritage shares letters from a homesick Christian farm boy that provide readers a first-hand look at the hardships and tragedies associated with World War II and the faith that sustained the young soldier. ""An excellent window into the mind of a young, Christian soldier as he experienced the highs and lows of training for combat, engagement of the enemy, and post-war occupation."" -Lieutenant General Carl E.
