Those little sermons interfered with the good times he had with the less serious youth he kept company with. Horace's unfailing sense of humor and easy manner made him a favorite in his "crowd." Aunt Jane's prayers continually followed Horace after enlisting in the Civil War where he became a different person; not only physically but spiritually. "Aunt Jane's Hero" is a well-told Christian story of how God can work in the life of young people. Click for Details & Reviews Quantity:
