Incredible...very nice to see a bit of our President's life before his political career. I wonder when he found the time to write this memoir. He has a true talent for story telling. A bit wordy, yes, but if you read the edition with his forward, you'll laugh because he, too, apologizes for his wordiness! This book really did make me admire him even more as a person and as our president. Somehow he manages to write of his life's hardships in a way where you're not rolling your eyes thinking "oh sure, look at him NOW and see if he'll still complain about paying the rent". LEt's hope he keeps his humble tone throughout the presidency.
