A statement from Jonathan Karp, Simon & Schuster’s President and CEO, on President Carter’s legacy as an author: “Of all our modern Presidents, Jimmy Carter was America’s most protean author. President Carter wrote memoirs, calls to action, fiction, poetry, and children’s books. He wrote appreciations of Scripture and nature. He offered advice on how to live a meaningful life. He delighted in reading the audiobook versions of his work, for which he won three Grammy awards. In all of his books he maintained a voice of great integrity and intellectual honesty. We are grateful to have published so many books by President Carter, books that will endure as a legacy for readers who want to appreciate the life and mind of one of the most inspiring and admirable world leaders of our time.” Of the 32 books that Jimmy Carter wrote, Simon & Schuster published 13 of them, beginning in 2001. All were bestsellers.
