Spiritual Reflections of Tom Lee presents the author's margin
comments of scripture related to the text of his daily devotion for
one year. The comments were made not necessarily to be scholarly or
to share his thoughts; rather, they were his reflection on the
cited scripture and his musings on it as a force in his life and
the lives of others. He does not claim spiritual authority for his
remarks but risks the belief that his musings as he sought God's
truth and grace would be of interest and profit to others.
As the veterans of World War II dwindle, their stories have become
valuable to a country in danger of losing the ideals that arose
from the Depression and the war. Depression, War, Disability Be
Damned is the memoir of one member of the "greatest generation."
Thomas J. Lee's Depression-era childhood in Indiana placed value
not on money or social hierarchy, but on integrity, hard work, and
faith in God. Lee drew heavily on that faith during the war, when
his battle wounds resulted in three years of hospitalization and
the amputation of his leg a year after discharge from the army. He
was challenged not only by lifelong disability, but with the
proving that he was still a man of ability and worth. Lee's
emotional story seems hopeless at times, yet the sheer force of his
strong faith carries the reader through as surely as it carried
him. His successes―professionally as an educator and personally as
a husband and father―are stirring testaments to the triumph of the
human spirit.
