Good biography of a great man-Billy Graham

The book is one of many I've read of or about Billy Graham, and I've enjoyed them all. This one has a tortuously slow, dirge-like rendition of the first few lines of "Just As I Am" at the beginning of each chapter. I love old hymns, but this got very annoying.

Billy Graham's wonderful story

this book was very informative about the main points of Billy Graham's life. I enjoyed it very much mostly because it covered a broad section of his life.

A compelling listening experience and biography

Would you consider the audio edition of Billy Graham: A Biography of America's Greatest Evangelist to be better than the print version?

I've not read the book so I cannot judge this.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Billy Graham: A Biography of America's Greatest Evangelist?

The stories selected around Billy Graham's early life that describe those aspects forming and shaping him into the world's greatest evangelist read more like fiction than fact. This is a GOOD thing and kept me interested start to finish.

Have you listened to any of Andrew L. Barnes’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No. But this performance stands on its own as quite good in contrast to other audio books.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, and it was a perfect accompaniment to a long road and flight business trip.

Any additional comments?

W. Terry Whalin demonstrates once more what makes him a good writer and storyteller. His passion on the subject is obvious, and his ability to hold any listener's interest is unswerving. He presents the facts but leaves supposition and conjecture out of it, letting the reader just enjoy the history. Great book and an incomparable biography of the late, great Billy Graham.

not what I was hoping

If you are looking for a book that gives a personal account on who Billy Graham really was, this book may disappoint you. While there were details of his life given, I feel this book centered mostly on the details of Graham's ministry. I realize Graham's ministry was a large party of who he was, I feel I was just given facts. No heart. I was hoping to be drawn into the life of Billy Graham, and learn more about the husband and father he was, instead it was all about where he traveled.
