Recommendation
Journalist Jonathan Alter’s extensive biography reports that former Naval officer and one-term US president Jimmy Carter is an underappreciated peacemaker who defused conflict in potential war zones in Central America, the Middle East and Asia. In 1978, Carter’s dogged dedication to diplomacy helped Israel and Egypt agree on the historic Camp David Accords, which prevented war between the two countries. Carter also pushed to return control of the Panama Canal to Panama. Alter highlights Carter’s accomplishments and the problems that overshadowed them.
