MAITLAND, FL— Within the pages of Bob Haslam’s new book, PK: A Preacher’s Kid Comes of Age During the Great Depression and World War II ($11.99, paperback, 978-1-61996-469-3; $19.99, hardcover, 978-1-61996-470-9; $5.99, eBook, 978-1-61996-471-6), the author takes his readers on a journey through his life during one of the hardest economic times the United States has experienced to date. The author also sheds light on some facts that were kept secret during World War II, which continue to be largely unknown by contemporary Americans.

“My story relates to a wide audience due to the depressed economy of the present as well as the fact that we are involved in a time of war,” states the author. “Come with me to hear tales of my nomadic life as a preacher’s kid during the Great Depression and World War II in Western Washington State. You will find amazing correlations between the era I describe and the one in which we now live.”

Bob Haslam has served as a pastor, missionary educator, missions executive, editor of his denominational magazine and as an online mentor for hundreds of writing students. His writing has appeared in over eighty publications and thirteen books. Most importantly, however, Haslam’s desire lies in sharing the deep values that shaped his life with his readers.
