Obama's rise to the presidency and first term up to the assassination of bin Laden. Woven into the narrative - battles for the economy, health care etc. - is his profound commitment to making America a saner and fairer society. He comes across as deeply thinking, deeply caring (for his family too!) dogged in the face of, even ironic about, implacable political opposition and prejudice. And of course he writes like an angel . . . A remarkable book by a remarkable man.
