A "New York Times" Bestseller
Each day during his presidency, Jimmy Carter kept a private diary.
In it, he supplied unvarnished assessments of cabinet members,
congressmen, and foreign leaders, and narrated the progress of
secret negotiations; he recorded his thoughts and his impressions
of White House life, and chronicled the delights and the
frustrations of occupying the world's most powerful political
office. Yet this extraordinary document was never made
public--until now. By carefully selecting the most illuminating
entries, Carter provides us with an astonishingly intimate view of
his presidency. Day by day, we see his forceful advocacy for
nuclear containment, and his campaign for peace in the Middle East.
Remarkably, thirty years after the fact, he has annotated the diary
with candid reflections on the people and events that shaped his
presidency, and on the many lessons he learned. Offering an
unprecedented look inside both the man and his tenure, this
fascinating book stands as a unique contribution to the history of
the American presidency.
