The Longest Shadow - Mark a Wyatt - Bog

Farmer. Soldier. Son. When Howard Miskelly was drafted into the US Army at age 18, he had no idea how far from his north Mississippi farm the adventure would take him. Fighting his way across war-torn Europe, Howard proudly carried out his duty, eventually earning two Bronze Stars for courageous combat against an armed enemy. His letters home kept him in touch with his beloved family, and he longed for the day that he would see them again. After his return home, Howard Miskelly put himself through college and became one of the most successful and respected businessmen in the state of Mississippi. He and Ann, his wife of more than 60 years, raised five strong children whose own successes in business have taken their father's legacy to new heights. This is the story of a man and his family, a man and his integrity, a man and his God-a man whose life has cast a long and comforting shadow to all those who have had the privilege of walking beside and behind him.
