Victorious: Corrie Ten Boom and the Hiding Place

This is the story of how Corrie ten Boom's 1971 classic, The Hiding Place, came into being, sold millions and helped shape the faith of a generation. Some books have such an impact on people that they become more than a book - they influence a generation, and beyond. Guthrie tells the story of Corrie ten Boom's The Hiding Place. Ten Boom was a simple watchmaker in The Netherlands when World War II began, and soon, by faith and determination, she became a heroine of the resistance to Hitler and the Nazis. She survived the concentration camps and became one of the twentieth century's most important evangelists. Nearly half a century after it was first published, The Hiding Place still thrills and challenges readers with its portrait of Cori ten Boom: an imperfect servant of Jesus, who was determined to defy evil, defend the weak, and endure hardship.Read less
