This review is from: The Bronze Killer: The Story of a Family's Fight Against A Very Common Enemy, Hemochromatosis (New Edition) (Paperback)

A real page-turner and a wonderful resource for the newly-diagnosed, it is gripping and well-written; but, above all, it is a riveting story of answered prayer and an awesome testimony of faith!

This review is from: The Bronze Killer: The Story of a Family's Fight Against A Very Common Enemy, Hemochromatosis (New Edition) (Paperback)

Our family came upon this book by more than co-incidence, just at a time when we needed it most. We had been reading a novel in the 'Stories from South Africa' series, by the same author, entitled,'With no remorse' and were intrigued to see a note at the end of it, to the effect that the 'ongoing, non-fiction story' of two of the characters could be found in 'The Bronze Killer'. - What an eye-opener! Not only was the book well-written and utterly absorbing; it provided us with information which has led to the diagnosis of several members of our family. We are so grateful! Also recommended: Enjoyed all the author's other titles, especially 'With no remorse' and 'Storm Water.'

A valuable and highly recommended resource.

"Thanks to them, this disease will never mutely effect and confound patients and their families as it has in the past."

"If more people know about it, more people will live!" - Marie Warder in Maclean's, October 6, 1986

Pat Ridgway of St. John, New Brunswick says, "I must say the book is so informative, it was like looking in the mirror. I am going to pass it on to others to read."

"Glad I read it!....Not even in the best of medical journals, not even on the Internet have I found the answers to so many niggly little details... to the small, intimate things I was too embarrassed to ask my doctor about. She makes the difficult things easier to understand." - Glenn Paige, Tucson Arizona, Internet, and letter passed on by Canadian Hemochromatosis Society.(With permission.)
