Sometimes Mountains Move is the unforgettable account of one family's ordeal with death--the loss of their twenty-year-old son while rock-climbing in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Young David... This description may be from another edition of this product.
In late April of 1968, a college student and experienced climber named David Koop died when a portion of the rock sheered off the mountain he was climbing. The death was devastating to his friends and close knit family. In their grief and attempts to understand what happened, C. Everett Koop - chief of pediatric surgery at the Children's Hospital in Philadelphia and later Surgeon General of the United States - and his wife give a moving account of their faith in God and how that faith has sustained their family's loss throughout the years. This slim volume (96 pages) is poignant, honest, and strangely comforting to the reader. I was moved by this book and can recommend it without reservation.
