| Sharing
Good Times
by Jimmy Carter, 2004
In this wonderfully evocative volume,
following the outstanding success of
The Hornet's Nest, Christmas in Plains,
and his classic, An Hour Before Daylight,
Jimmy Carter writes about the things
that matter most, the simple relaxed
days and nights that he has enjoyed
with family and friends through the
years and across generations.
Here are lively and witty accounts of
exploring the outdoors with his father
and with black playmates; making furniture;
painting; pursuing new adventures and
going places with children, grandchildren,
and friends. He describes how he learned
to share life with his wife, Rosalynn
-- and how they both learned how to
grant each other personal space -- and
to compete with her on the tennis court,
high mountains, trout streams, and ski
slopes.
These lifetime experiences can be an
inspirational guide to anyone desiring
to stretch mind and heart and to combine
work and pleasure.
