At 90, Jimmy Carter — 39th president, Nobel Peace Prize winner, international humanitarian, and fisherman — reflects on his public and private life with a frankness that is disarming. In A Full Life (Simon & Schuster), Carter tells what he is proud of and what he might do differently. He discusses his regret at losing his re-election, but how he and Rosalynn pushed on and made a new life and second and third rewarding careers. He is frank about the presidents who have succeeded him, world leaders, and his passions for the causes he cares most about, particularly the condition of women and the deprived people of the developing world. Carter has lived one of our great American lives — from rural obscurity to world fame, universal respect, and contentment. A wise and moving look back from this remarkable man, A Full Life is an extraordinary read. Please note: This is a booksigning only. A purchase of A Full Life is required to join the signing line.
