Eternity Through the Rearview Mirror

How do ordinary people become extraordinary?

Annette Hubbell asks that question of seventeen world changers in this one-of-a-kind fiction/non-fiction collection of spellbinding conversations with the most unlikely of bedfellows.

Spanning the ages, from Galileo to Johnny Cash, these seventeen tell all from their heavenly vantage point. Let them reveal to you their secret to eternity’s timelessness. (Hint, it has something to do with who gets the credit.). In addition to Galileo and Cash, you’ll hear from Abraham Lincoln, C. S. Lewis, J. S. Bach, John Newton, Elizabeth Fry, Sojourner Truth, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Harriet Tubman, George Washington Carver, Amy Carmichael, Mary McLeod Bethune, Aimee Semple McPherson, Corrie ten Boom, Gladys Aylward, and Louie Zamperini. All were wildly famous in their day, some still are.

These seventeen biographies are written as autobiographies, and the actual words of each historical figure are in italics to differentiate from those of the author's. If you're looking for accuracy and source documents, you'll find it in the 606 endnotes. If you want to dig deeper, each profile ends with places to visit, either in person or via the internet. Each story is also tagged with three Scripture verses that might have been their favorites. Because this book is written as a collection of stories, it can be read in any order, and would make an excellent subject for a book club or an in-depth home school curriculum.
