Son of the Wind by Leanne Eshleman Benner

Dr. D. Rohrer Eshleman’s life of adventure and faith unfolds in a century that grapples with mind-boggling change—from horse-and-buggies to space flight, from crude medical intervention to high-tech procedures. Seemingly destined for a farming career, Rohrer’s life takes a decided turn by the interweaving of ordinary and extraordinary events.

In both the hilarity and the sorrow, his penchant for taking life by the tail with a whoop and a holler was outmatched by God’s call on his life to make Christ visible in both a Third World culture and a prosperous one. That God would choose Rohrer’s weaknesses, rather than his strengths, to accomplish this purpose is the magnificent crux of this story. Rohrer’s varied experiences as a medical doctor give fresh insight into how each generation can boldly and successfully manage the challenges of its time, and that being a “son” of the wind is life’s greatest thrill.
