Truth wrapped in fiction has the power to engage the reader’s mind, heart, and spirit. So it has the power to transform.

Parker Hudson’s Book Reviews
Parker Hudson
I guess I’m a bit of an anomaly:
• A conservative Southerner who believes strongly in our nation’s unique founding ideals of individual, God-given freedoms,
• A civil rights activist who battled the segregationist Democratic Party in the Georgia Challenge Delegation in Chicago,
• A Naval officer who loved steering a guided missile cruiser around the Mediterranean,
• A commercial real estate entrepreneur and teacher for five decades in the U.S. and Russia,
• A Deplorable clinging to my guns and Bible, with a Master’s Degree from The London School of Economics as a Marshall Scholar,
A husband, father of five, grandfather, pilot, scuba-diver, author, and, most importantly,
• A sinner saved by grace alone.
So that’s the melting pot from which has emerged four novels about personal transformation, and many essays focused on Faith, Economics, and Policy.
I hope you will engage, and that we will seek Truth together.
