Emily Compagno’s FOX News book, Under His Wings, soared to the top of the New York Times Bestseller list.
Joining the ranks of other FOX News instant bestsellers—such as Trey Yingst’s Black Saturday, Dr. Nicole Saphier’s Love, Mom, and Shannon Bream’s The Love Stories of the Bible Speak—Under His Wings captivates readers with powerful narratives of faith and resilience.
The book delves into the lives of honorable service members who discovered faith amidst the trials of the battlefield. Featured stories include firsthand accounts from Save Our Allies co-founder Sarah Verardo and former Representative Doug Collins (R-GA), offering a blend of historical perspective and deeply personal experiences.
Compagno also shares intimate reflections on her own life, including family stories, friendships, and the legacy of soldiers whose faith transformed their lives. Additionally, she recounts her unique experience as an Oakland Raiders cheerleader on a USO tour to Iraq and Kuwait, where she aimed to uplift the spirits of soldiers on the frontlines.
During an appearance on FOX & Friends, Compagno remarked, “It’s the honor of a lifetime to serve as a messenger for the extraordinary voices of men and women on the frontlines—sharing their deeply personal experiences of faith, service, and courage.”
In this evocative collection, Compagno examines the profound role of faith in the lives of American soldiers during wartime. As a descendant of distinguished Navy and Army veterans, she provides a unique perspective on the enduring connection between faith and perseverance in moments of great adversity.
From World War I to modern-day conflicts in the Middle East, Under His Wings weaves together history and personal testimony. Veterans recount how their religious beliefs gave them the strength to endure the trials of combat, offering a compelling portrait of faith under fire.
The book features a diverse array of stories, including insights into USO tours—such as those by Marilyn Monroe and President Ronald Reagan—heartfelt letters exchanged between soldiers and their families, and treasured photographs that illuminate their journeys.
Following the success of FOX News books like Modern Warriors, Faith Still Moves Mountains, and All American Christmas, Under His Wings stands as a heartfelt tribute to the power of prayer and the bravery of American troops. This inspiring work promises to uplift readers during the holidays and beyond, serving as a lasting testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
