Obama: The Historic Journey

Obama: The Historic Journey brings readers the extraordinary story of Barack Obama’s voyage from childhood through his inauguration as the 44th president of the United States of America. His election marked an unprecedented step forward in American history, shattering racial barriers and forever altering the political landscape. No other news source has better captured his story than The New York Times, America’s premier newspaper and the winner of 96 Pulitzer Prizes for journalism.

Obama: The Historic Journey presents an astounding array of visual imagery, indepth reporting, and insightful analysis. This elegantly designed, lavishly produced volume includes hundreds of photographs by New York Times staff photographers, such as Pulitzer Prize-winner Doug Mills, Damon Winter, Ozier Muhammad, and many more. Portraits of Obama by such renowned artists as Kara Walker, Elizabeth Peyton, Yan Pei-Ming, Kurt Kauper, Barry Blitt, and others add a unique dimension to the incisive commentaries by acclaimed New York Times columnists David Brooks, Roger Cohen, Gail Collins, Maureen Dowd, Thomas L. Friedman, Bob Herbert, Nicholas D. Kristof, Paul Krugman, and Frank Rich.

This landmark book, which includes the full text of President Obama’s major speeches, provides the most comprehensive portrait of the man whose meteoric rise and inspiring message have touched people the world over.
