“Short but surprisingly deep…It’s a small book but a powerful
one. And when you finish it you have not just a deeper
understanding of Elizabeth Edwards but also a better appreciation
for the strength of will it can take to survive.” –Los Angeles
Times
From the Hardcover edition.
The bestselling author of Saving Graces shares her
inspirational message on the challenges and blessings of coping
with adversity.
She’s one of the most beloved political figures in the country,
and on the surface, seems to have led a charmed life. In many ways,
she has. Beautiful family. Thriving career. Supportive friendship.
Loving marriage. But she’s no stranger to adversity. Many know of
the strength she had shown after her son, Wade, was killed in a
freak car accident when he was only sixteen years old. She would
exhibit this remarkable grace and courage again when the very
private matter of her husband’s infidelity became public fodder.
And her own life has been on the line. Days before the 2004
presidential election—when her husband John was running for vice
president—she was diagnosed with breast cancer. After rounds of
surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation the cancer went away—only to
reoccur in 2007.
While on the campaign trail, Elizabeth met many others who have
had to contend with serious adversity in their lives, and in
Resilience, she draws on their experiences as well as her own,
crafting an unsentimental and ultimately inspirational meditation
on the gifts we can find among life’s biggest challenges. This
short, powerful, pocket-sized inspirational book makes an ideal
gift for anyone dealing with difficulties in their life, who can
find peace in knowing they are not alone, and promise that things
can get better.
