THE #1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER The riveting, deeply personal account of history in the making?a record-breaking, critically acclaimed no.1 bestseller. 'Gorgeously written, humorous, compelling, life affirming' Justin Webb, Mail on Sunday In the first volume of his presidential memoirs, Barack Obama recounts his journey from a young man searching for his identity to the 44th president of the United States, describing in strikingly personal detail his political education and landmark moments of his first term. Reflecting on his presidency, Obama takes readers from his early political dreams to his Iowa caucus victory and the historic night of November 4, 2008, when he became the first African American president. It is the story of one man's bet with history, the faith of a community organizer tested on the world stage. Obama is candid about the forces that opposed him at home and abroad and bearing the expectation of a generation buoyed by messages of "hope and change", and unafraid to reveal self-doubt and disappointment. Yet he never wavers from his belief that inside the great, ongoing American experiment, progress is always possible. This beautifully written and powerful book captures Barack Obama's conviction that democracy is not a gift from on high, but something founded on empathy and common understanding and built together, day by day

4.5 stars, this was full of information, wasnÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢t too dry, and I am always partial to a narration by the author - but especially for this one, as one could probably tell from his time as president, heÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢s so compelling to listen to. It was so long, though! I felt like I was reading it forever, even though really it was only 8 days. I will say, my audio checkout ran out part way through and I decided to just finish it as an ebook because I still had my library copy, and that made the end feel even slower. IÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢m typically a very fast reader, but this was pretty dense and lengthy.
I definitely see why heÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢d choose to break it in two, I donÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢t know how I wouldÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢ve felt had this been both terms and I was still reading. IÃ?¢ââ??‰â??¢m definitely interested in the second installment and will probably buy the audiobook next time, or start earlier after I get my library copy
