Description

Former US President Jimmy Carter recreates his Depression-era boyhood on a Georgia farm, before the civil rights movement that changed it and the country. He writes about the powerful rhythms of countryside and community in a sharecropping economy, and offers an unique portrait of his father, a strict segregationist, and his strong-willed and well-read mother, a nurse who cared for anyone in need, regardless of their position in the community.
