Description
At ninety years old, Jimmy Carter reflects on his life with a frankness that is both disarming and revealing. This memoir offers a unique glimpse into his public and private life, covering his childhood in rural Georgia, his experiences in the Navy, and his time in politics. Carter shares stories about his relationships, including the profound influence of his mother and the challenges of his marriage to Rosalynn. Throughout the book, Carter also discusses his passions and the causes he cares most about, including the condition of women and the deprived people of the developing world. He is frank about his regrets, including losing his re-election, and the lessons he has learned from his experiences. This is a wise and moving look back from a remarkable man who has lived one of America's great lives.
