Readers should be prepared to be wrapped in and mesmerized by the eloquence and emotion of Guy Stern's words. Be amazed, too, by a life well-lived, touching and affecting many by example but most often, more closely. Compassion, patience, and courage now seem to mean much more. A must-read for all who treasure life and living." - Albert C. Yates, president emeritus, Colorado State University "Interspersing intellectual brilliance with deep emotional intelligence, Invisible Ink is a smart and compassionate memoir about a life well lived. It is steeped in historical significance and emphasizes getting the most out of every moment." - Jessie Horness, Foreword Reviews"Reading Invisible Ink reminds me of the Ogden Nash lyric, 'Boy, what memoirs them was!' Guy Stern is a survivor, soldier, hero, scholar, professor, and provost, but first and always, a 'mensch.' For forty years, he has been my wise counselor, gilded-tongued ambassador, and inspiration." - Kim H. Kowalke, president, Kurt Weill Foundation for Music"Stern is an elegant writer [. . .] interesting memoir of an accomplished life well lived." - Abigail Klein Leichman, The Jerusalem Post"An inherently fascinating and memorable read from beginning to end, Invisible Ink will prove to be an enduringly appreciated and prized addition to both community and academic libraries. - Midwest Book Review"Stern has artfully captured all that it takes to build the soldier destined to conduct some of the more interesting missions of World War II. Beyond that, he weaves the gripping, yet delightful, story of his transition from immigrant to student to interrogator to scholar in what is a remarkable read for all of us. It is a treasure trove of experiences, insights, and lessons from a life well-lived which will benefit readers of all ages, all interests, and all passions." - Donald F. Schenk, brigadier general (US Army, retired)
