What a Life!: A Memoir

Jacobs writes openly about his parents and their cultural differences, and he locates the source of his ability to swing comfortably between worlds in his childhood home. He candidly explores how he simultaneously held the trust of conservative North American Mennonites and the respect of African Mennonites who chose him to be their first bishop. Paperback. Good Books/Skyhorse Publ., 2012. 320 pages.
