WURMBRAND. TORTURED FOR CHRIST.
The complete story
By David C. Cook
The Voice of the Martyrs. 372 pages. £9.99
ISBN 978 1 434 711 175

This engaging and simply-written biographical narrative explores the experiences of a family of persecuted Romanian Christians, in the mid-20th century, during an oppressive Communist regime.

It holds particular relevance for today as the story is set during politically turbulent times in Europe. We see Romania swing quickly from a far-right fascist power, with its alliance to Nazi Germany, to a Soviet-aligned Eastern bloc state, following the end of WWII.
