Jimmy Carter’s mother is remarkable new bio notes

Jimmy Carter has a new book out, a biography about his mother Lillian that is called, A Remarkable Mother.

USA Today has an interview with the 83 year old 39th President, and while the questions are simple and straightforward, they reveal his thoughts with regards to the book. Publishers Weekly has said, “Modern readers who assume that church-going Southern Baptists don't swear, drink or work to promote birth control will find Lillian an eye-opener. She played an unofficial though vital role as the Carter administration's goodwill ambassador around the world—she almost persuaded our government to let Muhammad Ali bargain with Iran's Ayatollah Khomeini for our hostages taken in 1979. Carter offers wonderful stories about a great woman.”Thorndike Press is the publisher. Click here to read the USA Today interview with the Nobel Peace Prize winner/author: Jimmy Carter.
