so-so
Retired college professor & presidential historian Burton Kaufman tackles the Obama presidency. A well-researched and well done book, and refreshingly these days without an obvious political agenda. Written like you'd expect from a history professor - neutral and a bit dry. I did like it, but I was disappointed that it doesn't seem to have anything new to say. ARC copy - book due on 3/15.

tokorowilliamwallace I have two books on the Obama administrations, one by his speech writer, and the second about the 2012 presidential election. At that time I was avidly watching and reading political analysis, commentary, and theory, as well as watching daily press conferences and some congressional session cams. It was an interesting, vibrant political time and conversation during his administrations, when I was in my twenties. 2y
