Synopsis
America's most well-known preacher, the Reverend Billy Graham, writes about where he came from and the places he has been as he has spread the gospel worldwide, including behind the Iron Curtain and in China. Born on a North Carolina dairy farm in 1918, Graham rose to prominence through endless personal appearances, called Billy Graham Crusades, as well as through television and radio, becoming a major American figure of the second half of the 20th century. Here Graham shares his public side, with anecdotes about his meetings with powerful and famous people, including John F. Kennedy (indeed every U.S. President in his time), Martin Luther King, Jr., Queen Elizabeth, Johnny Cash, and others. He was witness to and participated in some of the great social changes in America, and is remembered most notably for his demand for desegregated audiences. Graham also delves into the private side of his life, writing about his family and friends, and how his tireless dedication to his work has affected his relationships with them. In JUST AS I AM, the television evangelist humbly gives an account of his life, for believers and nonbelievers, as he tells what is has been like to live in Christ.

Industry reviews
"His autobiography....is a curious combination of laborious official testament....and occasionally gripping personal story. It's clearly a collaborative effort, but it maintains, miraculously, the same. solid, distant baritone that still mesmerizes football stadiums....The inner tension of this autobiography is that of the public man whose private life became so attenuated that it gnawed at his own spiritual integrity. You understand better by this story why some churches demand celibacy of their ministers. Graham is gruffly honest about this....Although the high political anecdotes keep one amused throughout this tome, and the story of Graham's life itself is so remarkable, this underlying regret propels the book with a sadness that is strangely haunting. It makes one wonder whether the Christian calling to God is ever fully compatible with the Christian calling to family, a tension that Graham, alone among our modern fundamentalists, seems humble enough to grasp." New York Times Book Review - Andrew Sullivan (07/06/1997) "To some readers of Billy Graham's autobiography, its title, 'Just As I Am,' will seem disingenuous. This is, at one level, a curiously unrevealing book. From Augustine to John Henry Newman to Peter Cartwright, the great Christian memoirists have been intensely reflective as they have probed their doubts and anguish, their conversion and their subsequent relationship with God. Graham's autobiography, however, is nearly all no the surface. Of course, no one would be surprised if one of America's most influential public figures chose to shroud the personal, and potentially embarrassing, details of his life, but this is not the case with Graham. His examination of his life is as guileless as it is unpenetrating, and in this way, his autobiography does present him just as he is....'Just As I Am' ....bears out [previous biographers'] portrait of him as the Eagle Scout of American evangelicalism." Los Angeles Times Book Review - Benjamin Schwarz (06/22/1997)
