Assorted Books About Barack Obama ~ 3 Books. Titles are: Barack Obama for Beginners by Bob Neer (2008, Paperback), This guide to the life and work of America’s first African American president provides a comprehensive look at the most important facets of the man. Covering both his childhood and family life, the book details the Illinois Senator’s dramatic climb to the White House. The authors describe the media frenzy that surrounded his campaign, which drove it into the global spotlight and made it one of the biggest election turnouts in recent United States history. The book takes pains to offer both the praise and the criticism showered on President Obama. With illustrations throughout, this is an insightful and engaging introduction to one of the world’s most powerful men. Profiles the Harvard Law School graduate, legislator, civil rights lawyer, and presidential candidate, discussing his platform, strengths and weaknesses, qualifications for office, and how his campaign has progressed. 74 pages., The Audacity of Hope by Barack Obama (2007, Paperback, Reprint), The junior U.S. senator from Illinois speaks out to all Americans on how to transform U.S. politics, calling for a return to America’s original ideals and revealing how they can be adapted to such controversial issues as globalization, the function of religion in public life, and the struggle to bring people together in a nation torn by differences. “While exhibiting his leadership attributes, life experiences and personal qualities largely in anecdotal form, this book also displays reasonably wide and thoughtful, if occasionally predictable, responses to domestic controversies and underscores that in his brief time as the junior senator from Illinois, he has been exposed to conflicts in the Middle East, the former Soviet Union and elsewhere.” “True to his roots as a former lecturer in Constitutional law at the University of Chicago, Obama’s writing is academic and intellectual enough to further discourse on some of the most complicated policy issues of the day without becoming too didactic and dispassionate. Yet his observations from the halls of Congress to the cornfields of Illinois are full of enough Kennedyesque idealism and enthusiasm that he never loses the common touch.”, and Dreams from My Father by Barack Obama (2004, Paperback, Reprint), In this memoir, the son of a black African father and a white American mother searches for a workable meaning to his life as a black American. It begins in New York, where Barack Obama learns that his father – a figure he knows more as a myth than as a man – has been killed in a car accident. This sudden death inspires an emotional odyssey – first to a small town in Kansas, from which he retraces the migration of his mother’s family to Hawaii, and then to Kenya, where he meets the African side of his family, confronts the bitter truth of his father’s life, and at last reconciles his divided inheritance. The son of an African father and white American mother discusses his childhood in Hawaii, his struggle to find his identity as an African American, and his life accomplishments. All men live in the shadow of their fathers–the more distant the father, the deeper the shadow. Barack Obama describes his confrontation with this shadow in his provocative autobiography. DREAMS FROM MY FATHER, and he also persuasively describes the phenomenon of belonging to two different worlds, and thus belonging to neither.” 448 pages.These 3 Softcover books are in Good condition. The interiors are mainly clean with some minor wear to some pages. There is light wear to the covers.
