Poems written over the last thirty years -- about babies and about the horror of making it legal to kill them. Poems full of challenges to Americans and to American Christians in particular -- challenges to our values, our goals, our shallow claims of faith. Celebrations, lamentations, warnings, and prayers. Reaffirmations of faith in the Child least-wanted, and most unjustly killed -- of faith in Christ, our only Hope and Deliverer.

Autorenporträt
James Howard Trott, a native of Montana, and an honors graduate of Harvard College, made his living as a mechanic, and carpenter. He and his lovely wife have six children and thus far thirteen grandchildren. He is involved in a Presbyterian church in Philadelphia and a Baptist mission in Belize, where he teaches the Bible and wood-turning. He has published a number of books of poetry as well as a novel on the Salem witch trials. As the astute reader will gather, he was involved for many years in the abortion rescue movement, and as a result of this peaceful, prayerful activity, spent time in a number of jails -- where, to paraphrase Thoreau speaking to Emerson, he wonders if more Christians don't belong. He believes those contemplating abortion ought to be told about the seriousness of sin -- and that those who have committed abortion ought to be told about the forgiveness of sin found in Jesus.
