And There Was Light, published by Morning Light Press, is a profound spiritual autobiography by Jacques Lusseyran, the blind French resistance fighter whose extraordinary inner vision shaped a life of courage, insight, and resilience. Blinded at age eight, Lusseyran developed a powerful “inner light” that guided him through childhood, adolescence, and ultimately into leadership within the French Resistance during World War II.

In this deeply moving narrative, Lusseyran recounts how blindness opened—not closed—his perception of the world, allowing him to sense people’s intentions, navigate danger, and inspire others. His story moves from early self‑discovery to his arrest by the Nazis, imprisonment in Buchenwald, and the spiritual clarity that sustained him through unimaginable hardship.

More than a memoir, this book is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the transformative power of inner awareness. A must‑read for readers of spiritual literature, WWII memoirs, and personal‑growth narratives.
