This new post-presidency legacy book brings you the best 101 examples from around the world, in a special commemorative edition celebrating the startling event that was the 2008 election of America’s first African American leader.

(See pages 40 and 69 of the Obama book).DREAMS OF AUDACITY & HOPEMany Barack Obama biography and legacy books have been written by different authors in recent years. His autobiography, Dreams Of My Father, as well as his memoir, The Audacity Of Hope, detail Obama's life story better than any biography by another author could, while the photographic portraits offered in Obama books by Pete Souza and Peter Baker reveal the intimate access they had to the White House’s first African American president during his two administrations.But this new legacy book enters the Barack Obama story in 2004 with his very first cover, for Black Enterprise, and then tracks Obama’s US presidential campaigns and elections of 2008 and 2012 through a further 100 amazing covers.THE CALL OF HISTORY 2008Amongst the print media, Barack Obama was a publishing sensation - a fact borne out by the volume of covers his portrait graced during his eight-year American presidency. They range from graphic illustrations to photographs of Obama giving speeches while on the campaign trail, right through to intimate studio portraits. Many depict him as the chosen one, the Messiah even. Obama was the one who, out of the many, answered the call of history many thought would never come, while exercising power that no other African American leader before him has ever wielded on the political and presidential stage.OBAMA: AN INTIMATE PORTRAIT IN WORDSThe text for the Obama covers book discusses the design, typography, photography and political context of each cover portrait, bringing to life this unique portrait of the world’s most famous man.BARACK: 4 COVERS FOR NO. 44Obama: 101 Best Covers, is available in FOUR collectable editions, each with a different cover.
