Babe Ruth, The Bride, The Battle: The Remarkable Life of Paratrooper Lewis P. Fern (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781499676921)

It's a life full of twists, turns and rewards. And may never be repeated. Through Clairmont Presbyterian Church in Decatur, Georgia, I became close friends with Marion Fern and her husband Lewis. He began to tell me childhood stories: his several notable years caddying for Babe Ruth, his romantic courtship with a beautiful print ad model and smart nurse, and his multiple adventures in World War II as one of the nation's first paratroopers. For three years, he told me the stories and I wrote them down. This book is a compilation of those firsthand accounts from Lew. It spells out what encounters along the way led him to be the man who he is, how his faith played an integral role in the process, and the lessons that one could learn from his choices. Lew's life is one of intrigue, celebrity, and hard work. It's not often that you get to meet a true living hero, let alone write his life story. I did both and I'm honored. I hope that Babe Ruth, The Bride, The Battle: The Remarkable Story of Paratrooper Lewis P. Fern inspires you. Cyndi Todd
