    In 1992, a novel by university professor Robert James Waller was published to less than glowing reviews. Despite the critical reception, The Bridges of Madison County became a publishing phenomenon, spending two years on the New York Times bestseller list and selling more than 50 million copies. Decades before, Waller had met 18-year-old Jana St. James at an Indiana University coffeehouse. Their innocent friendship blossomed into love— despite Waller's seven-year marriage. Years later, as St. James read the newly published book of her dear friend, it wasn't long before she experienced a shortness of breath and a relentless ache. Why were there so many similarities about her experiences with Waller in the novel— were the memories still alive for him, too? In Memories of Madison County, Jana tells her side of the impossible love story— from the innocent phases of friendship through gentle afternoons as lovers, and ultimately to the heart-wrenching yet inevitable end of their relationship.

    “The way to reach God’s will is to go through life's trials & struggles. It means that to achieve any sort of heavenly state we must be tested. We 
    are guaranteed to fail some of those tests. That's ok as long as we learn from them and find the strength to continue traveling the road. We 
    become stronger by overcoming our failures and ultimately find the strength to reach our destination.” 
    “Larry is a modern-day crusader, The Larry Ray Hardin that you will see in much of this book is a younger, angrier version than the one I came 
    to know in San Diego. What makes Larry’s journey great is not just that he refused to be lured in by corruption as he walked the path through 
    hell. What makes it great is that he learned from his failures along the way, replaced anger with wisdom, and continued to walk the road to 
    heaven.”
