Barack Obama Quotes to live by is a small book filled to the brim with quotes stated by the ex-president of the United States of America.
The book is split into six sections:-
- Hope and Change
- Meaning and Purpose
- Faith and Belief
- Politics and Principles
- America
- Life and Family
Each page contains one quote and underneath it states where and when the quote was said.
The book is full of thoughtful and meaningful quotes as well as quotes that shook a nation and made people think. These are quotes that people will be remembering for years to come. The only tiny detail about the book I didn't like is that the writing is in yellow.
