Honor Through Sacrifice

At Hold The Line Press, we believe in the power of stories to illuminate lessons of the past.

History isn’t just a collection of dates and names.

It’s a vast library of human experiences, a treasure trove filled with triumphs and tragedies, successes and failures. By studying the past, we gain valuable insights into human behavior, societal trends, and the consequences of our actions.

These lessons equip us to make informed decisions for ourselves and our communities, navigate complex challenges and ultimately build a brighter future.

Hold The Line Press writes stories about overcoming adversity, resilience in the face of hardship, and the enduring power of the human spirit in history.

Rob Lofthouse does a masterful job drawing in readers to the point that they become fans of the team, even if they’ve never stepped foot in the state of Pennsylvania, much less strapped on the shoulder pads for the Panthers.

Saucon Valley is a rare community that represents the best of both worlds — a large vibrant community that still loves, supports and appreciates its local, Friday night high school football…and all that comes with those great traditions. As someone who witnessed and called “The Catch” on the local TV station, it gave me goosebumps to relive all those magical moments that Rob captured in great details from that historic season.
