Miracles and Supernatural Religion (1903)

This true story is about a near-fatal automobile accident. The author tells about everything from the moments leading up to the accident through his recovery. The entire ordeal is written in a light-hearted fashion, though at times there are some serious and even sad moments. The book deals with not only the physical injuries caused by the accident, but also with the mental issues such as post-traumatic stress disorder complete with graphic flashbacks and suicidal thoughts. While being rescued, Charlie even had an out-of-body experience. His accident was so severe, he had to overcome the thought he had actually died in the mishapaa thought that haunted him for well over a year after the incident. This story is written in a manner that may cause you to cry, to laugh or to just shake your head in disbelief. Truly an inspirational and uplifting read.
