520    Among Christian devotional works, My Utmost for His 
       Highest stands head and shoulders above the rest, with 
       more than 13 million copies sold. But most readers have no
       idea that Oswald Chambers's most famous work was not 
       published until ten years after his death. The remarkable 
       person behind its compilation and publication was his wife,
       Biddy. And her story of living her utmost for God's 
       highest is one without parallel. Bestselling novelist 
       Michelle Ule brings Biddy's story to life as she traces 
       her upbringing in Victorian England to her experiences in 
       a WWI YMCA camp in Egypt. Readers will marvel at this 
       young woman's strength as she returns to post-war Britain 
       a destitute widow with a toddler in tow. Refusing personal
       payment, Biddy proceeds to publish not just My Utmost for 
       His Highest, but also 29 other books with her husband's 
       name on the covers. All the while she raises a child alone,
       provides hospitality to a never-ending stream of visitors 
       and missionaries, and nearly loses everything in the 
       London Blitz during WWII. The inspiring story of a devoted
       woman ahead of her times will quickly become a favorite of
       those who love true stories of overcoming incredible odds,
       making a life out of nothing, and serving God's kingdom.
