THE VIRTUES OF AGING
Carter, Jimmy
Ballantine, 1998
143 pages

Written in his mid-70s, Carter reflects on his life as a senior citizen. It is especially poignant because his three siblings and dad all died in their middle years. In his well-established candor, he writes of personal fears and discoveries, difficulties in marriage and family life, mentors in his journey, the near loss of the family business under his watch, as well as national issues regarding legislation and social security of the United States. Included is a well-crafted postscript on the place of his Christian faith in his career. Once again, the strength of faithfulness to Christ shines through in this book.
