Kepler's Presents Jimmy Carter

Each day during his presidency, Jimmy Carter made several entries in a private diary, recording his thoughts, impressions, delights, and frustrations. He offered unvarnished assessments of cabinet members, congressmen, and foreign leaders; he narrated the progress of secret negotiations such as those that led to the Camp David Accords. When his four-year term came to an end in early 1981, the diary amounted to more than five thousand pages. But this extraordinary document has never been made public—until now.

Jimmy Carter, our thirty-ninth president, received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002. The author of numerous bestsellers—including An Hour Before Daylight and Palestine Peace Not Apartheid—he and his wife, Rosalynn, live in Plains, Georgia, but continue to travel around the world in support of numerous philanthropic efforts.

Come and see President Carter in person, tonight, at Kepler's Books. This is a meet-and-greet book-signing.  President Carter will not be giving a formal presentation. You must have a ticket to enter the signing line. Tickets can be purchased at Kepler's or by calling 650-324-4321. Tickets will be available for purchase at the door and the line will form at 6pm.
