Joseph-Beth Booksellers is honored to host President Jimmy Carter on Tuesday, September 28th at 1:00PM. White House Diary offers an unprecedented look at both the man and his tenure. This fascinating book will stand as a unique contribution to the history of the American presidency. Each day during his presidency, Jimmy Carter made several entries in a private diary, recording his thoughts, impressions, delights, and frustrations. He offered unvarnished assessments of cabinet members, congressmen, and foreign leaders; he narrated the progress of secret negotiations such as those that led to the Camp David Accords. But this extraordinary document has never been made public until now. By carefully selecting the most illuminating and relevant entries, Carter has provided us with an astonishingly intimate view of his presidency. Day by day, we see his forceful advocacy for nuclear containment, sustainable energy, human rights, and peace in the Middle East. Thirty years after the fact, he has annotated the diary with his candid reflections on the people and events that shaped his presidency, and on the many lessons learned.
Line tickets are required for this event and are given with a purchase of White House Diary at Joseph-Beth Booksellers. The signing line will be limited, so customers should purchase White House Diary book vouchers, available now, to guarantee their spot in the signing line.
