The Methuselah Project by Rick Barry

Since I’ve been overbooked, I asked a friend of mine, Joe Fausnight, to read and review this book for me. Here’s his take:

Captain Greene was an American Pilot from Indiana who was flying missions over Germany in 1943 when he was shot down. As his plane fell he cried out to God. He landed in a woods between to giant oak trees destroying his plane but leaving him and the cabin of the plane intact.

He was picked up by the Nazis and a civilian car was following the truck he was in. Taken to a secret underground lab he was number 7 guinea pig for a Nazi science project for long life and quick wound repair.

Author Rick Barry

After they had gassed and worked on the men the place was bombed by the Allies. The scientist who had come up with the project was killed as well as number 1 through 6 men. He survived as did the assistant scientist and he was kept in a cage for many years after the war was over as they experimented on him and tried to duplicate his success. He looked and acted like a 30 year old even as decades passed. He knew nothing of the outside world except what he was told that the war was still going on decades later.

They gave him lots of books to read to pass his time and after reading many classics he asked for a Bible. He got a lot of comfort from it over the years. He exercised daily as well as taking flying trips in his mind including all the safety checks so he didn’t forget how to fly.

Did he ever get free? Did he ever find anyone who cared about him other than as a lab rat? Did he ever discover the changes in the world since his capture? You will find out and enjoy this book when you read it. A very good read and worth the time to read.

I give this books five stars.
