Captured by the Russians: A True Story - Paperback

"You do it our way. Here, there is no God."

On September 11, 1984, I was taken hostage by the Soviet Union and held captive in Siberia. Few have the courage to follow their dream. Mine led from a small town in upstate New York to a dingy cell in Siberia. Leaving my hometown with a yearning for adventure, my travels brought me to Alaska where I obtained work on a merchant ship skippered by one of the youngest ship captains in the United States. Two years later, on a freight-hauling mission to the Arctic, our ship was seized by the Soviet Union and taken hostage to Siberia. Held at gunpoint and threatened with 30 years in prison, this is the story of how five young American sailors took a stand for their faith against high-ranking officers in the Soviet military.
