A Promised Land


A Promised Land by Barack Obama  751 pgs

Excellent book.   It is as though you are sitting across from the President and he is relating all the things he experienced throughout his two terms as Commander in Chief.  He adds in some memories from his past growing up in Hawaii, beloved times with his parents and grandparents and times with Michelle, her family and their daughters and family dogs.   You learn about Obama the man, the husband and father, the organizer,.the politician and the President.   He talks honestly about his life and career.  So many interesting historical events laid out in detail told as only Barack Obama can.   Most excellent read and he pulls no punches on the real people he came in contact with and just how he feels about them.  I recommend this book to Middle Schoolers on up.
