Elizabeth Edwards is one of the most beloved political figures in the country and, on the surface, she seems to have led a charmed life. In many ways, she has. Beautiful family. Thriving career. Supportive friendships. But she’s no stranger to adversity. Many know of the strength she showed 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 when her own life was 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 recur in 2007.

In Resilience, Elizabeth Edwards crafts an unsentimental and ultimately inspirational meditation on dealing with life’s biggest challenges. This powerful and inspirational book makes an ideal gift for anyone dealing with difficulties in their lives, to draw strength from the kind of attitude that Elizabeth has developed, and find peace in knowing that they are not alone.©2009 Elizabeth Edwards; (P)2009 Random House

Surpringly, Edwards' book is about many life-changing experiences -- the least important is the afair. Worth listing to, but make sure you have your tissues handy.

Elizabeth reads her own story of her life, and she is a good narrator. She is a complex person and very interesting. Such an interesting life, yet such tragedy. I feel sorry for her, losing her son. She has a lot of strength and character and her son would be proud of her for writing this book. Hopefully this will help others deal with the ups and downs of their own lives. Wonderful book.

Intense and emotional

I picked this book for the title. As an Aussie who doesn't really follow politics, I didn't know who Elizabeth Edwards was in the context of her husband. What an amazing woman who shares of her extraordinary journey of courage. Her book really resonated with me and spoke to my situation about needing to accept the life that is. Loved it!!!

Elizabeth Edwards had a golden life. And then tragedy struck. After the death of their son, which she never could really overcome ,her misfortunes only multiplied. She really had a uniquely sad and difficult life . But she grew determined not to be identified as a victim, though she certainly was one. She decided to make something of her greatly diminished life. The reader marvels at her strength of character in the face of extreme physical frailty and emotional challenge. I t has helped me personally during a time of crisis in my own life.

What an inspiring book
