Synopsis

For more than half a century, and from Plains to Patagonia, Dr. Carlton Hicks fished with Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter, their group of loyal guides, and a merry band of best friends and anglers. Before, during, and after his presidency, Jimmy Carter’s pursuit of a better world often involved his ride-or-die buddies fly fishing and feasting with world leaders - and in some wild circumstances - dangerous dictators.

In 12 stories set in 12 locations around the globe, Jim Barger Jr. and Hicks recount how President Carter and his lifelong friends changed the course of world history, all while casting flies and pursuing the perfect strike.

To publish this book, with a foreword by President Jimmy Carter himself, is one of the great honors of our lives, and we believe these never-before-told true tales will soon become the stuff of legend.
