Summary: 3 Stars
I would have liked the book to delve into his personal life more. It seemed to just skim the surface.Of course,it was written several years ago. He has certainly led an interesting life, but I was left wanting more.Book Review: Exceptionally Revealing
Summary: 5 Stars
Barack's Dreams From My Father is most compelling. It takes you through his early years to adulthood...and throughout you're able to follow his thought processes and feelings. While his search for self identity and place are key areas of dicussion, there is also the realization that that identity is in context with all of humanity. The book is passionate, funny at times and reveals Barack's keen ability to analize, understand and reach reasonable conclusions...fair to all. His journey, while different from most journeys, is not uncommon to many, as you attempt to discover one's self and purpose in this world. It's a terrific page turner, candid and thoroughly enjoyable. W. BestBook Review: Dreams from My Father
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved this book! It was raw, candid and honest. Barack's life has been a kaleidoscope of experiences, making him a person of understanding and accepting of human nature as such a varied life would allow. Having been to Nairobi, I could easily visualize the descriptions of places he visited. I followed the book by reading "Audacity of Hope". The combination has given me hope that there may be someone who could actually bring some desparately needed light to this world!Book Review: A Very Down to Earth Man
