Book Information Letters from a Captive Heart is a novel about love, loss, heartbreak, and the human spirit's will to survive. American prisoners of war held in the prison camps of North Korea suffered unimaginable horror at the hands of their captors, while at home their families quietly suffered the fear of the unknown. The Korean War traumatized America and became known as the Forgotten War. To those who were called to fight it and to their loved ones, it can never be forgotten. Letters from a Captive Heart starkly portrays the contrast between the innocence of the early 1950s in rural Kentucky and the horrific reality of the North Korean POW camps. In this moving and poignant saga about the effects of war, we find there is nothing more fragile than a captive's heart and nothing more powerful than its story of survival. www.russelllunsford.com
