In this riveting book, How I Found God in My Aunt's Back Yard, Anthony Ray shares his provocative and compelling story of growing up in America in the Jim Crow South; his experiences as a Muslim while on active duty as a Naval Officer during the Iranian hostage crisis, and the events that led to his conversion to Christianity. This is a particularly powerful and gripping story for such a time as this, in light of the war on terror and the need of Muslim moderates in America and abroad to aggressively condemn terrorism. Anthony agrees with Douglas MacArthur, when the General is quoted as saying on September 2, 1945 "The problem basically is theological, and involves a spiritual recrudescence and improvement of human character that will synchronize with our almost matchless advances in science, art and literature and all material and cultural developments in the past two thousand years. It must be of the spirit if we are to save the flesh..." I'm sure you'll agree those are powerful and timely words from a true American hero.
