Good Overview of JC

If you have time for only one Carter book, this is it. It gives a very good overview of this great man and I have to say it reads more dyanamically than "Beyond the years" and other books written by Carter himself, although not to take away from these. History will continue to look favorably upon Carter. Too bad he had such bad presidential years but then we now know it does not correlate to later accomplishments.
