Ninety-six German POWs have arrived at a work camp in Northern Minnesota. Sauli Berglund watches the enemy soldiers from the edge of his property. His mind sees a little boy, his son Ronnie, laughing, jumping off the dock into the cool water. \"Ronald Berglund, Lieutenant, U.S.Navy,\" the telegram had read. \"Missing in action.\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSauli cannot know that three more telegrams will find him before the war is over and that Anni, his fiery daughter, will douse the flames of intolerance that threaten to engulf the community. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWars are not always fought on the battlefield; the combatants are not always soldiers. And telegrams are not always bad news.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Telegram\" is a wartime story about peace: peace of mind, peace of spirit and the inner strength provided by a heart at peace with the world.","brand":"doug hoffmann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47081042706672,"sku":"2940012183651","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940012183651","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
