Review of 'A Promised Land' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
This should be required reading for the naysayers and politicians in general. The depth of thought, intelligence, and self reflection shown in this book is what makes a great leader.

maybe even 4+. While there were a couple of accounts that were a bit in the weeds even for this policy fan, the heft of this first volume was warranted. I look forward to reading the second installment when it's written.
Obama writes with honesty and humor. I was (pleasantly) surprised at his frankness—he doesn't mince words about what he thinks of political shenanigans (here and abroad).
