Sinopsis

Jean Carnahan was the first lady of Missouri when her husband, Governor Mel Carnahan, who was running for the U.S. Senate, and their son, were killed in a plane crash. When Mel Carnahan was elected posthumously (beating John Ashcroft), Jean agreed to take his seat in Washington and served in the U.S. Senate during 9/11, the anthrax attacks, and the vote to go to war in Iraq. During a time of intense and almost unimaginable personal loss, she managed to keep her head up and her heart open and worked diligently for her constituents and for the country. Her upbeat attitude is truly a lesson to us all.

Carnahan, in the public sphere most recently as she campaigned for President Barack Obama, is a skillful writer. A cross between Molly Ivins and Maria Shriver, she brings her tales about aging, change, strengthening the family, history, politics, and language to the page with a plainspoken, wise humor that is pure pleasure and genuinely uplifting. The Tide Always Comes Back is the kind of practical inspirational gift book that word-of-mouth could turn into a wonderful, evergreen book.

Cr�ticas

Here, with wit and wisdom, Jean Carnahan teaches us how to make lemonade out of life, as she has. In the face of what could have been overwhelming loss, she reveals how she drew strength from family, party, country, and especially faith, to see her through until the tide came back. These are invaluable lessons, lovingly shared. (Cokie Roberts)

Jean Carnahan's The Tide Always Comes Back is an inspiration just like the woman who wrote it. Both ask readers to reach for the sky! (Sheryl Crow)

My 80-year-old mother told me that The Tide Always Comes Back was a must-read for mothers and daughters. As always, she was right. Page after page, with humor and grace, Jean Carnahan reminds us of the things we value mos. (Senator Claire McCaskill, D-MO)

Descripci�n de la librer�a

We are in an older house right on Hwy 26/85, approximately 2 miles west of town, right on the route to Fort Laramie National Historic site. Some new, mostly used, we are always looking to buy or trade for good western history, mountain man, weapons and especially Wyoming history titles. If you get to Torrington stop in but please call to verify we are in as we are both retired and hours are inconsistent. My cell is 307-401-3033 or 307-220-7337
