  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Les Knight, a young man from Camberwell, Victoria was like many who joined to serve his country during the Second World War. But unlike many others his skill as a Lancaster pilot enabled him to successfully breach the Eder Dam in the now infamous Dambusters Raid. At the age of 22, Les was awarded the Distinguished Service Order and became a national hero. 
  But his war service continued, and four months after the Dambusters Raid, his aircraft was badly damaged. On this occasion, Les’s skill and bravery were again on display as he held the stricken plane steady to allow his seven crewmates to bail out. 
  Then, as he searched for a place to ditch the aircraft, he steered clear of a Dutch village to avoid any civilian injuries. The plane hit the ground hard, cartwheeled, and Les was killed. 
  Five of the seven crew members were able to evade being captured by the Germans and, with the help of underground movements, were returned to England. The other two were captured and detained in POW camps until the war’s end. All seven returned home to continue their lives, marry and have children. Their lives are Les’ legacy. 
  This is the remarkable story of one brave Australian who answered his country’s calling and who demonstrated courage far beyond expectation. His gravestone carries the inscription ‘Let us be Worthy’. The village of Den Ham has never forgotten the bravery of this young Australian pilot. His grave has always been immaculately kept.

  Ownership - The Evangelical...

  ECPA Top Shelf Book Cover Award
  The Gospel Coalition Book Awards Award of Distinction–History and Biography
  Men of their time?
  Jonathan Edwards, John Wesley, and George Whitefield were the three most prominent early evangelicals—and all three were deeply compromised on the issue of slavery. Edwards and Whitefield both kept slaves themselves, and Wesley failed to speak out against slavery until near the end of his life.
  In Ownership, Sean McGever tells the true story of these men's relationships to slavery: a story that has too often been passed over or buried in scholarly literature. Laying out the dominant attitudes among Christians toward slavery at the time, McGever sets these "men of their times" in their own context, inviting us to learn how these shapers of American evangelicalism contributed to the tragic history of racism in America. He also explores how Christians finally began to recognizethat slavery, which they'd excused for most of Christian history, is actually wrong. It's a story that white evangelicals must wrestle with today.
  Ownership is more than a book of history. It's an invitation to examine our own legacies and to understand—and take ownership of—both our heritage and our own part in the story.
