The Strength of Courage by Alfred J. Dansbury Sr. is packed full with numerous life lessons and relatable experiences tells the story of a young African American who nearly meets his fate honoring his country in World War II on the battle fields of Europe and Africa. His resilience and faith drove him to discover his strength and pushes to see his loved ones again.

His love for his family enabled him to survive and go back home to start a new family.
