Buried Alive, written by Roy Hallums with the help of Audrey Hudson, is a book about Roy�s 311 days in captivity by a group of Iraqi insurgents. Roy was working for the Saudi Arabian Trading and Construction Company in their offices in Baghdad when he was kidnapped. Roy recounts how his captures put a ski mask over is head, bound his hands and feet and ultimately buried him alive in a small-unventilated concrete hole under a small room in a house. Statements from Roy�s family, mainly from his ex-wife and one of his daughters, about what they were going through while he was in captivity are also included throughout the book. Buried Alive is a great story in the making. I say in the making because even though I was captivated while reading it, the story lacked feeling and detail. It was published by Thomas Nelson, so even before I started reading the book I was expecting to hear a little more about how his faith in God gave Roy the hope he needed to survive his ordeal. When he talks about praying for various things it is only in passing and then he is off to another subject. I praise God that Roy was rescued and is able to share his experiences and teach others survival techniques, but I really feel that this book should have been a rough draft not a final copy ready for print.
