Yes We Can by Garen Thomas
In this biography, author Garen Thomas tells the fascinating story of Barack Obama: from his childhood, through his youth, his term as senator from Illinois, to his historic and momentum-building run to become President of the United States. The book includes over 30 excerpts from Obama's speeches, as he has recently proved that his words have inspired voters - especially the young-to turn out in record numbers to make history. Learn about the man who overcame every obstacle to become the president who will continue to lead America to Change.
