Yes, the Jimmy Carter. It's a fictional novel about the Revolutionary War in Georgia and the Carolinas. The main plot and characters are fictional, but much of the story is non-fiction. I'm less than a hundred pages in, but so far, so good. I'll let you know what I think of Pres. Carter as a novelist after I finish. It's 465 pages of relatively small print... this might take awhile.
