Barack Obama's Search for Identity

Date of Review:  Apr 22, 2007
The Bottom Line: This is a very good book about Barack Obama and his interesting childhood and young adulthood.
Review: Growing up in a bi- racial household would certainly have its share of ups and downs and it often leaves children and other family members torn in different directions, especially if the marriage doesn t work out. This social setting not uncommon in...

"Between my black and white worlds"

Date of Review:  Apr 27, 2008
The Bottom Line: Barack Obama's career is now far beyond 1995 when DREAMS FROM MY FATHER APPEARED. Yet he is the same man: brooding, introverted, articulate, idealistic, hopeful. The book unlocks the candidate.
Review: On August 4, 2008 Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. will be 47 years old. As of the spring of 2008, the junior U. S. Senator from Illinois leads Senator Hillary Clinton in the competition to be Democratic Party candidate for President.

You! Who? Barack 's Story

Date of Review:  Oct 15, 2008
The Bottom Line:

the book, it was good.

Review: I have an excessive appetite for knowing more about whom our presidential candidates really are, and I thought how better to find out then to read his book. Just like everybody else who holds an idea in their mind about the world in which we now...

Dreams From My Father

Date of Review:  Sep 17, 2007
The Bottom Line: Is powerfully written and brutally honest. Delving deep into the reflective heart and mind of Illinois Senator Barack Obama, worth reading.
Review: The thing I find most daunting about this book is just how beautifully Senator Obama can write.

I first purchased Dreams from My Father, at a local bookstore, just perusing. I had seen his name and face displayed everywhere: on prestigious...

A Thoughtful Story Of Discovery

Date of Review:  Apr 6, 2008
The Bottom Line: A journey of self-discovery and development that is worth reading.
Review: While this book is similar to an autobiography, its main focus is the author's journey to discover the mysteries of his father and to find his own place in life. With thoughtful and emotional words, Barack Obama relates to the reader his journey of...

Changed the way I see the world

Date of Review:  Feb 22, 2008
Review: I live in Canada but have gotten into Obama-mania as much as the next guy. This book has changed my life. The way Obama articulates his empathy for what others are thinking and feeling throughout his upbringing really gives one a plethora of...
