Carter is a skilled narrator and writer

Beyond the White House details the inspiring work that The Carter Center has accomplished across the globe. The audiobook is narrated by Jimmy Carter, and you don't get to be president of the United States without some vocal charisma. He is delightful as both narrator and author, and his work is an inspiration to all. From battling diseases written off as insignificant by larger NGO's, to monitoring the honesty of elections in third world countries, Carter has his hand in making the world a better place. His book will educate and inspire, while keeping the listener truly engaged from chapter to chapter. Jimmy Carter's wife Rosalynn also contributes - both to their foundation and to this audiobook production. She details her war against mental illness, and the way it has been swept under the rug by health officials. Their actions are infused by faith, and will inspire even the most cynical listeners.

Inspiring words make for a great audiobook

Jimmy Carter seems to have had more impact on the world - for the better - after his presidency than before. He is an inspiration to all compassionate audiobook listeners, and his book is both entertaining and inspiring. If only more world leaders were this compassionate! Beyond the White House makes for a great non fiction audiobook. With plenty of public speaking experience, Jimmy Carter is a suburb narrator. His wife Rosalynn contributes, and her words of wisdom - especially about mental health issues- are equally engaging. Both of their hearts come through on this production, and you feel like you get to know not only their work, but to know them as individuals with caring souls. Listeners will learn about world health issues they have never heard of before, and see that individuals do have the power to make a difference. Carter's welcoming, personal style will be an inspiration to young and old listeners alike.

Outstanding Book by an Outstanding Man

In BEYOND THE WHITE HOUSE, Jimmy Carter has written a fascinating report on the magnificent accomplishments of The Carter Center. I recommend this book for anyone with any interest in this Nobel Peace winner or the humanitarian efforts to which he has dedicated his life.
