“Wayfarers [is a] fine work.  I’m pleased it’s reprinted.  The distortions of the Spanish War will long be in correcting.  Your book is very helpful to that end.”
Archbishop Edwin O’Brien
Head, Catholic Military Services

“John Steinbacher is able to lift you up to an emotional peak, until you think you can’t stand it, and then he brings you smashing back down again.  There are those who would kill the body, but they cannot control his spirit, that is called many things, soul, nirvana, even love.  Steinbacher’s talent captures that spirit.”
Gary Allen
World Famous Author
Western Islands Press

“Wayfarers of Fate is wonderful!  Excellent writing, marvelous reading.  [John Steinbacher] is a gem!”
Roberta Whitney

“The basic theme so vividly depicted in Wayfarers of Fate over fifty years ago unfortunately still rings true today.  As pointed out in the preface to the new edition, ‘This story has been repeated endlessly, even in our own time, and the future holds for the western world many more years of incessant struggle against diabolical forces that threaten to undermine the fabric of our western culture. . . The tumult presently gripping our world in the ‘war on terror’ was presaged in this book, first published fifty years ago.’
I thank John Steinbacher, through his epic novel, for instilling in me a greater sense of urgency and motivating me all the more to speed up my request to help remove these self-destructive diabolical forces within man before it’s too late.”

“John Steinbacher, author and renowned radio personality in the United States and Canada, has touched the hearts of many with his novel Wayfarers of Fate.”
Inland Empire Radio News, 2006

“[Wayfarers] is vital to our understanding of the world we live in today.  It portrays the conflict of values and the suffering brought about through this war.”
Dr. Jules Vautrot, Prof. Emeritus
Chico State University, 2006

“Have just completed [Wayfarers of Fate].  You have certainly captured the chaos, the horrors and the desolation of war.  The Characters are graphically tragic and the story itself is a human tragedy.  Your descriptive narrative is all too real and made me wonder whatever prompted this saga.  This project must have demanded endless research, but your passion and devotion to it register vividly.”
Patricia Harding, 2006

AN OUTSTANDING HONOR—
PACIFIC UNIVERSITY HAS PLACED “WAYFARERS” IN ITS PERMANENT LIBRARY COLLECTION

“The novel fares better with age – an internet cult favorite – the anti-communist theme (and) today’s war on terror spark interest in the book.”
The Press Enterprise

“Delicate, dedicated, sensitive and explosive.  (The book) has the stamp of greatness about it.  An uncommon book, a useful one – shedding welcome light into a dark chamber – (filled with) compassion and vivid detail.  It is as fresh as tomorrow’s paper and as old as time.  I read it without laying it down.  It has meaning for America and should be read by millions.”
