#241
Title: The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream
Author: Barack Obama
Publisher: Vintage
Year: 2006
458 pages

While Obama's second book includes elements of memoir, they seem to serve primarily to buttress his agenda, the articulation of which is his purpose here. I don't always agree with him, but found this book useful for understanding his broader intentions, reassuring in some arenas, and interesting in and of itself. A good book for seeing some of his plans (and now policies) in context.
