Along the way, readers will meet his friends and family, discover moments that shaped his life, and learn more about the man and his motivations.
Written by a leading journalist and filled with more than 140 photographs, this up-to-the moment biography gives an inside look at one of the most fascinationg figures in politicsm and quite possibly the next President of the United States.

This is MUST reading for all Americans and will give the reader a thorough understanding of the Barack Obama the media is trying to convince us we know nothing about. He lays himself bare -- his life, his beliefs, his thoughts, his ambitions and his plans for a better America for all of its citizens. I doubt anyone with an open mind will come away from this book unconvinced that he is more than ready to be the President we need in 2008.

I sent this book to my grandmother and she was very pleased with the pictures and autobiography of Barack Obama. She has been watching the election closely.

Good for those who want a quick look. Sentences are long, clause-filled, and difficult to follow.
