Our childhood experiences can help shape how we see the world. But what if your childhood was influenced by some of the most famous icons of all time?

Finding Home with The Beatles, Bob Dylan, and Billy Graham, a memoir by author Jess Archer, explores the meaning of "home," as Archer tells her personal, witty, and humorous account of growing up in the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. Archer's memoir, the first of its kind, gives insight to the topic of childhood anxiety, the ways parent's choices affect their children, and the power behind song lyrics of the Beatles and Bob Dylan.

"My memoir explores cultural influences that shape each individual's childhood and how they help define the meaning of 'home,'" Archer said.

As an avid writer, Archer has spent 20 years honing her writing craft and teaching English around the world, in both public and private schools. She uses this experience to write a vivid and detailed account of her unique childhood experience shaped by the Beatles, Bob Dylan and Billy Graham.
