Born Again

Born again was written by Charles Colson, former special counsel in the Nixon administration. Colson tells his story from the days of the second Nixon election to his release from prison and most importantly his born again experience.

Although Watergate and politics may not suit you this is an excellent book. When I was reading this book I would pick it up and read every chance I got. I found Born again to be very captivating and inspiring and couldn't wait to see what was written on the next page.

From the back cover of the book, "against the backdrop of the explosive Watergate scandal, Charles Colson revealed the story of his own search for meaning during the tumultuous investigations that led to the collapse of the Nixon administration. …Colson paradoxically found new life not with success and power, but while in national disgrace and serving a prison sentence."

I highly recommend Born Again.
