Synopsis

Barack Obama For Beginners: An Essential Guide is the most concise and reliable short biography available on the 44th President of the United States -- from his childhood in Hawaii and Indonesia, education at Columbia and Harvard, work as a community organizer, writer, teacher, lawyer, and politician in Illinois, to his historic campaign for President. Barack Obama For Beginners keeps the focus on the man and his record -- accomplishments and missteps, praise and criticism -- to allow readers to gain a balanced understanding of President Obama as they follow his rise to the White House. Entertaining illustrations enliven the reading experience and highlight important details.
