“Faith Beyond Belief is an extraordinary tale of courage and grace. Colonel David Eberly’s ordeal in the Iraqi desert and the prisons of Baghdad is among the most remarkable stories to come out of the Persian Gulf War. His account is honest and well told. Every page is alive with his fortitude, his strength, and most of all, his faith.” —Rick Atkinson, Pulitzer Prize-winning author, The Washington Post
