"It takes a while to get through this biography, but then Mr. Graham has done a lot in his eventful life. The book goes through his life chronologically, and it reads as if Mr. Graham was telling stories about what happened during tha time of his life. So often he will throw in a little rememberance that is only a couple of paragraphs long. It makes for a real personal feel to the book.[return]I enjoyed this book immensely. Some chapters were of less interest than others of course, my favorites were the ones in which he described his relationships with political leaders. I highly recommend this book, especially for those interested in famous people and/or religious leaders." — Deb (4 out of 5 stars)

" The focus of the autobiography is Rev. Billy Graham, a man without peers. The writing is not the best and the book drags in too long. Overall, a very insightful look at the miniostry and the man. "
" Thoughtful and touching. Not too preachy. Better than I expected. "
" I am glad I read it but it got overwhelming trying to follow his trips. "
" While I enjoyed learning Graham's adventures his whole thought process ur rather annoying because all his thoughts seem random and the book doesn't flow smoothly. "
" I would recommend this book only if you have trouble sleeping at night. It'll put you down every time. "
" Interesting, facinating full of good information and the history of the times as well as Dr. Graham. A little long sometimes but still good and I believe important. "
" A well written book on the life of a simple man with a simple message whom the Lord sustained and worked an incredible ministry through. "
" A great autobiography of a man after God's own heart. "
" What an excellent book. I was so happy reading Rev. Graham's biography that it kept me turning page after page (or in my case CD after CD). I would highly recommend it! "
" I loved reading about his childhood and how he became the man he is today. A lot of info all the crusades and various events can sometimes be too much info for me. I enjoyed reading about his various relationships with U.S. Presidents. "
" Billy's best career move? Death ! "
" Billy Graham is my favorite evangelist what can I say. "
" I absolutely fell in love with this book. It was very personable, well written, and inspiring. This is one I have recommended to a number of my friends. I had a hard time putting it down. "
" I had no idea Billy Graham lead such an interesting life. I mean I knew he was widely known as an evangelist but had no idea he personally knew every president since Truman. It was amazing to see how he consistently gave credit to the Lord and the power of prayer for his blessed ministry. "
" I enjoy reading peoples autobiographies, but this seemed more like a travel log of his crusades than really telling his story. It was still interesting but way too long. "
" BILLY IS THE MAN - "
" Billy Graham is a real, authentic person and this book reveals that. I have the utmost respect for this man. Great book. "
" Impressive review of the life and person of Billy Graham. Reads easily. I was taken by the description of his relationship with his wife, who was clearly the great woman behind the great man. "
" An honest, humble look at his own life. Just as he is! "
" This was a really long book and you can tell he is not an author by craft, but it was still very interesting and I had no idea how far reaching his ministry was and how many things he was involved in. "
" Billy Graham has been an inspiration to me for many years. I enjoyed reading his history and about his family. Thank you Billy for your service and dedication to others. "
" I ran across this again and was reminded what a powerful book this was! This was a great biography and I recommend it to those who need some strong inspiration. "
" Well worth reading. The story of one of the world's finest people. "
" Such a wonderful book, I didn't want it to finish. I wanted MORE stories! "
" Slow going - very interesting accounts of presidents of U.S. - became disenchanted towards end of book - finally gave up on finishing on page 629 "
" Interesting book - his life is very different than what I imagined. One of the greatest nuggets I learned through this book was the importance of prayer for our children's future. You never know where God will take them with your prayer. "
" LOVE Billy Graham! "
" A long biogrpahy of a remarkable life. Even with all his high profile contacts and being known as the President's preacher, the book retains his humility and honesty. He has made no attempt to paint a larger than life image and has been open with his shortcomings. "
" Really like it so far. It is a long read though. Have a few others I am reading too! I'm a multi-reader! :) "
" A very simple book about a simple man that has known and counseled the great men and women of the world. "
Billy Graham (1918–2018), world-renowned preacher, evangelist, and author, delivered the Gospel message to more people face-to-face than anyone in history and ministered on every continent of the world in almost 200 countries and territories. Engraved on a simple fieldstone in the Memorial Prayer Garden where he is buried at the Billy Graham Library in Charlotte, North Carolina, these words exemplify how the man and the minister wished to be remembered: "Preacher of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ."
