The first ever comprehensive oral history of President Obama's
administration and the complex political machine that created and
powered a landmark American presidency. In this candid oral history
of a presidential tenure, author Brian Abrams reveals the
behind-the-scenes stories that illuminate the eight years of the
Obama White House through more than one hundred exclusive
interviews. Among those given a voice in this extraordinary account
are Obama's cabinet secretaries; his teams of speechwriters, legal
advisers, and campaign strategists; as well as lawmakers on both
sides of the aisle who fought for or against his agenda. They
recall the early struggles of an idealistic outsider candidate and
speak openly about the exacting work that led to cornerstone
legislation. They share the failures and dissent that met Obama's
efforts and revisit the paths to his accomplishments. As
eyewitnesses to history, their accounts combine to deliver an
unfiltered view of Obama's battle to deliver on his promise of hope
and change. This provocative collage of anecdotes, personal
reminiscences, and impressions from confidants and critics not only
provides an authoritative window into the events that defined an
era but also offers the first published account into the making of
the forty-fourth president of the United States-one that history
will soon not forget.
