Exceptional Trip and Return to Earth!
George G. Ritchie wrote “Return from Tomorrow” which I discovered in my Church bookstore. An answer to explaining my own experience with death and coming back. A few books I read seemed to be not at all my experience. I felt I had been on a journey and knew I had been out of my body for quite a long time. I admire George’s manner of describing his journey and return. I’ve bought and given many friends and family his book to their delight! Superb!

Quite different from other NDEs
I love this book, it is much different from all the others. I don't believe the other ones less, I just like the different perspective Dr Ritchie gives, especially the possibility that the obsessions that we don't let go of here, could plague us for eternity. Scary thought. And this one adds an additional glimpse into the afterlife of those who believe their soul must sleep after death until Jesus returns to earth. Evidently people who think that, can create their own reality, at least until the end of the age! No thanks, I'll wait in heaven.

It's a good introduction to the phenomena and a good start before ...
If you're new this sort of thing then it'll be an eye opener. If you've read books about this area then this one will be no surprise to you. If you're a skeptic then you're going to remain a skeptic because that's your religion. The book does not constitute proof, but it's an uplifting book that will provide hope to those who need it and who are willing to open their eyes. It's a good introduction to the phenomena and a good start before reading other, more extensive, studies of the field.

Everyday a good deed you do for others send a positive ripple ...
Incredible book which further endorses our faith in Jesus Christ. One of the nicest books I have read.Since reading this book I have opened my heart to Jesus our saviour and God almighty.To call ourselves Christians we need to learn the teachings from the bible, be yourself, loving, caring, patient, obedient. Joyful.Everyday a good deed you do for others send a positive ripple in peoples lives. God Bless You All.

Unconvincing.
I think it's worth stating at the outset that, after reading all of Robert Crookall's books and a good many books on Near Death Experiences, I believe it's highly probable that we survive the death of our physical bodies. Unfortunately, I find this particular book unconvincing.I began reading it with an open mind, and I'm admittedly only halfway through it, but already my credulity has been stretched to breaking point by the author's description, on page 50, of the time he came under fire in 1945, at a tented camp near the Remagen Bridge in Germany - 'Suddenly I heard a German 88 missile pass overhead,' he says, which suggests that it was one of the notorious German 88mm anti-aircraft shells. But then he tells us 'The motor cut off and it came down, causing a big explosion about 100 yards from where I was standing.' German 88mm shells, however, didn't have 'motors', so despite what he'd said earlier, it seems that the camp was actually being targeted by the equally notorious German V1 flying bomb, which did have a motor. When this motor ran out of fuel, it 'cut off' as Ritchie says, and the missile fell to earth and exploded.However, it seems that Ritchie wasn't referring to the V1 at all, because he goes on to confirm that he really is talking about 88mm artillery shells - 'As soon as this one lit, the colonel shouted to the major to get over to the ammunition dump and let them know that the American ammunition disposal detail was firing the 88 shells into the area which we had moved into the previous evening.' Does he expect us to believe that a U.S. Army 'ammunition disposal detail' would make captured German 88mm shells safe by firing them off randomly into the surrounding countryside? I'm not an expert on the subject, but this seems highly unlikely to me. Why not just defuse them, or transfer them to an isolated location and detonate them, as happens nowadays when stray projectiles are discovered on old wartime battlefields?The 'ammunition disposal team,' he tells us, then fired 'another shell,' which exploded 75 yards from his camp. Then a third one comes over, and again Ritchie can't seem to decide whether this was an 88mm shell or a V1 flying bomb - 'I heard the whistling of another shell, the ominous motor cut out, and I knew it was coming down.' Apparently taking his readers for idiots, Ritchie tells us that this '88 shell' (which turned out to be a dud) landed only 8 feet away from him, miraculously right on the end of one of the poles supporting a field hospital tent, driving it 'so far into the ground we never saw it again.' Come on.Ritchie is, as far as I'm concerned, clearly telling us a tall tale, and its improbability reminds me of a description, in his previous book ('Return From Tomorrow'), of vast buildings in some heavenly realm where he claims he saw 'hooded figures bent over intricate charts and diagrams, or sat at the controls of elaborate consoles flickering with lights.'My impression is that Ritchie's books are a mixture of fact, embroidered fact, and sheer invention. Perhaps he felt that, if he could write books that comforted people (he was a psychiatrist and a Christian after all), then the end would justify the means. As he died in 2007, we'll probably never know. Fortunately, there are many books out there more credible than Ritchie's.

... I have no idea what it's about and absolutely no inclination to find out!
