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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBestselling 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 \u003ci\u003eMy Utmost for His Highest\u003c\/i\u003e, 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eUle, Michelle:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Bestselling novelist \u003cb\u003eMichelle Ule\u003c\/b\u003e has read \u003ci\u003eMy Utmost for His Highest \u003c\/i\u003eas her daily devotional every year since 1999.
