A native of Knoxville, Tennessee, Roddie was a simple, soft-spoken man of deep inner strength and unwavering Christian faith. Though he was driven to the limits of endurance, Roddie refused to succumb to Nazi brutality toward the Jewish-American GIs with whom he was serving. Through his inspiring leadership and bravery Roddie saved the lives of hundreds of U.S. infantrymen in those perilous final days of the Second World War. His fearless actions continue to reverberate today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrowing up, Pastor Chris Edmonds knew little of his father's actions in the war. To learn the truth, he followed a trail of clues, a journey that spanned seven decades and linked a sprawling cast of heroes, both known and unknown, from every corner of the country. In \u003cem\u003eNo Surrender\u003c\/em\u003e, Pastor Chris, joined by \u003cem\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/em\u003e bestselling co-author Douglas Century, chronicles his odyssey to tell the unforgettable story of his father and his remarkable valor. He also provides startling details (and vantage points) of some of the major events of World War II and United States Army initiatives that helped the Allies win the war, including the Battle of the Bulge, the massacre at Malmedy, and the now-little-known Army Specialized Training Program which prepared brilliant young \"soldier-scholars\"--or \"Quiz Kids\"--from across the nation to battle the Nazis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs compelling as the number-one \u003cem\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/em\u003e bestsellers \u003cem\u003eUnbroken, Boys on the Boat, Band of Brothers\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eSchindler's List\u003c\/em\u003e, illustrated with photographs and historical documents throughout, No Surrender is an epic story of bravery, compassion, and faith, and an inspiring testament to man's goodness.
