Bestsellers: Evans' New Book Looks At His Own Experiences
NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- Richard Paul Evans, author of the runaway
bestseller "The Christmas Box," has a new book on the best seller
lists -- but one that addresses the previous bestseller. In "The
Christmas Box Miracle" Evans looks at his own experiences as "The
Christmas Box" went from a modest self-published book to become a
runaway bestseller. The other books on national bestseller lists are
also familiar. Stephen R. Covey's "Seven Habits" is still there, and
Stephen Ambrose's "Nothing Like It In The World," which is back in
paperback.
Evans, an LDS Church member, tells his own story, from his youth in a
Mormon household, through his mother's loss of a stillborn daughter,
severe depression and suicidal tendencies. Evans shows how these and
other experiences led him to write a novel that brings healing and
hope to life.
Mormon News is experiencing logistical problems with the LDS
bestseller lists, but we expect that they will return shortly also.
