"Soon Comes Sunrise" recounts Chuck Alianza's childhood hiding in the Philippine jungles during W.W.II, eventual escape by submarine and his return as an adult to discover pieces of his life he did not know existed.
Sunrise is almost always associated with a new day, new beginning, end of darkness. But for some it twisted into a loss of hope, moment of fear, and the all too real presence of agonizing death.
Soon Comes Sunrise vividly recounts the author’s childhood in the jungles of the Philippines during WWII. The darkness of night brought safety from the ongoing searchings of the enemy. His father’s position as a leader of a local guerilla unit proved to be the avenue for his family’s eventual escape by the last submarine to dare breech the Japanese blockade.
Twenty six years later, with his own young family he returned to the same locale where they worked as linguistic and medical missionaries. There he translated portions of the Bible into a tribal language which had until then not been written. He also built a hospital in the tribal area which is still operational today.
