His narrative conveys a contagious and obvious delight in discovering how we are all connected. Here is a homespun history lesson about the nearly forgotten polio plague years and our fathers' and grandfathers' war, presented in a way that manages to bridge the gap between generations and even allows us to laugh a little as we learn of such serious matters. Perhaps in the end, however, Love, War & Polio is a simple and universal tale - one of faith, hope, and the healing power of love.
