Author Biography: Corrie ten Boom

Corrie ten Boom shared her story about her World War II experiences in the bestseller The Hiding Place, and wrote more than twenty books including In My Father's House, A Prisoner and Yet..., Jesus is Victor, and He Cares, He Comforts. She spent more than thirty years sharing her faith with people throughout the world.

Book Synopsis

In 1940, Corrie ten Boom was living with her father and sister above their watch shop in Haarlem, Holland-and when their country was invaded, this devoutly Christian family provided sanctuary for persecuted Jews. Before long, the Nazis captured Corrie and her family. They were sent to a concentration camp, where Corrie lost both her sister and father. But remarkably, throughout this turbulent time, Corrie sustained the faith in God that helped her become one of the most beloved evangelists of her time.

Tramp for the Lord continues Corrie ten Boom's extraordinary journey of hope following the events recounted in her bestseller The Hiding Place. From her near-destitute days in postwar New York to heart-stopping adventures in Africa, Corrie's inspirational life story proves that miracles do happen.
