From Publishers Weekly:

After a moving and personal introduction, Gaither offers glimpses of the stories behind 25 of the Gaither Family’s most popular Christmas songs, from "He Started the Whole World Singing" to "Unspeakable Joy." The songs, which stretch back over the Gaithers’ 40 years of music-making, span the gamut from the sacred to the secular; angels and mangers mix with brightly wrapped packages and holiday carols. The final section of the book continues the theme of gentle nostalgia, as Gaither offers favorite family recipes for Christmas soups, desserts, breads and other dishes. The Gaithers’ fans will cherish this intimate look at the musical family, as well as the theological insights behind some of their beloved songs.
