Book Reviews of The American Journey of Barack Obama
Book Review: ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I had purchased this as a gift for someone who born in Ghana. We have discussed many times how much we love Obama. When I received the book, I had to look at it. The photographs are exquisite and layout excellent. It contains very useful and interesting information. Boy, he sure was a beautiful little boy! Michelle looks elegant as always and Malia and Natasha's photos really show the reader just how AMAZINGLY beautiful they are as well. They bring a smile to my face, as I am sure they do to everybody's, every time I see them. They are blessings of pure joy!
A book for everyone who loves Obama and, those who appreciate it's splendid photography. I was very impressed with the whole thing.
Unfortunately, I have to buy gifts at this time of year and, have a small amount to do it with, so I will have to wait to get my copy. Hopefully, someone will put it on their list for me!
It was very difficult to give it up. I just want to keep looking at it!
Summary of The American Journey of Barack Obama
For decades Americans have turned to LIFE to see, understand, and remember the most important events and people of our time. Just as LIFE once opened up the glittering Kennedy White House, LIFE now focuses its lens on Barack Obama. The American Journey of Barack Obama covers the candidate from his childhood and adolescence to his time as editor of The Harvard Law Review and his Chicago activist years, culminating with the excitement and fervor of the historic 2008 Democratic National Convention. The unfolding drama of Obama's life and political career is cinematic in scope, and never has it been presented so compellingly. In addition to a powerful array of photographs that were taken by many of the country's greatest photographers (and some that were snapped, in the quiet moments, by Obama family members themselves), this book also includes a Foreword by Senator Edward M. Kennedy, an incisive narrative biography and original essays by some of our finest writers, including Gay Talese, Charles Johnson, Melissa Fay Greene, Andrei Codrescu, Fay Weldon, Richard Norton Smith, Bob Greene and several others. Many readers will find a new understanding of Obama. All readers will feel that they are bearing witness to a singular, undeniably American story.African-American & Black Books
