The Real Jerry Falwell
When my son Jonathan suggested that I write a book about my life with Jerry, it sounded impossible to me. Privately, I had thought about it, but I didn¹t have the confidence that I could actually do it. Even Jerry had encouraged me to write a book, but I always preferred to stay out of the limelight and let him do the talking. Luckily, my children had more faith in me than I had in myself, and they persuaded me that it was time to tell my side of the story.
If I had known what my future would be like when I married the skinny young man named Jerry Falwell, I probably would have run in the opposite direction. Looking back on our life together, I am glad I didn¹t know the details, because missing out on the wonderful life Jerry and I shared would have been a great tragedy. We were married for nearly 50 years, and I would not trade a single moment of it. Part of the reason I agreed to write the book is so that I could preserve all of those beautiful memories for myself, my family, and the generations to come.
