Description
Marshall Frady's epic biography of Billy Graham, the world's best-known Christian evangelist and America's pastor. With unparalleled access to Billy Graham and his family and associates, Frady presents an intimate and multifaceted portrait of the man, from his childhood upbringing in the midlands of North Carolina to his ascent to national recognition. Frady's narrative encompasses the popular religious leader, his spiritual mission, and his political involvements and bears witness to the show more preeminent position Graham has held in American life for decades. "Billy Graham is our nation's least studied national institution...Frady has finally given him the kind of attention he deserves" (The New York Times). show lessTags
