Mary Malloy longs for the fulfillment of love and marriage, but first must unravel the mystery of love itself... Greta Loetz must learn to conquer her fears so she can live in peace once again... Vince Spinelli's wartime experiences reinforce his belief in a life spent in pursuit of justice... These are just a few of the characters you will meet in Don't Let Down, a story of how the people in one Milwaukee parish banded together to defeat the power of war to destroy. Don't Let Down is based on the true story of a group of young women from St. Matthew's Parish on Milwaukee's south side, who published a newsletter in World War II that they sent to all the servicemen (and women) from their parish and sold to the parishioners each month. In fluent and graceful prose, the author has imagined the inner life of these young women and their families in rich historical detail, and has created a touching and inspiring story of the power of faith and love to transform lives. If you've ever wondered what life was like for your parents or grandparents during World War II, Don't Let Down will give you a glimpse into an era when every guy was a hero, and ordinary people lived through extraordinary times.
