The Watchmaker's Daughter

The Watchmaker’s Daughter

By Larry Loftis (Used Hardcover/Paperback — see photos for condition)

The Watchmaker’s Daughter is the powerful, true story of Corrie ten Boom, a Dutch watchmaker who risked everything to hide Jewish families during World War II. Loftis delivers the first major, deeply researched biography of Corrie, revealing newly uncovered details about her life, her family’s resistance work, and the secret hiding place they built inside their home to protect refugees from Nazi raids.

When the Gestapo discovered their efforts, Corrie and her family were arrested. She endured the horrors of a concentration camp, losing most of her loved ones — yet survived with her faith intact. After the war, she traveled the world sharing a message of forgiveness, courage, and grace.

Loftis’ narrative reads with the intensity of a spy thriller while honoring the emotional depth of Corrie’s journey. It’s an inspiring account of bravery, sacrifice, and the extraordinary strength of a woman who refused to let darkness win.
