The Memories! submitted by thegretch on July 20, 2018, 1:34pm Love this coffee table book of photographs of the Obama years. Great photos that tell meaningful stories.

Beautiful look into the 44th Presidency submitted by Susan4Pax -prev. sueij- on July 21, 2018, 3:52pm This book of photographs by White House photographer Pete Souza, along with the captions and occasional stories, gives a beautiful visual telling of the eight years of the Obama White House. I love the way there is a solid mix of diplomacy, office time, personal connection, and family time depicted. Souza excels at his craft, and we see, indeed, an intimate look into the man who was the 44th President.

Obama submitted by sandri on August 10, 2018, 4:25pm WoW!!!! amazing book, the pictures are spectaculars.

Beautiful Obama submitted by Beth Manuel on August 17, 2018, 12:46pm The photos in this book and the backstories to go with them are striking. It's hard to look at them and the magnitude of what Obama brought to his presidency without feeling wistful and sad about the current regime. One of my favorites is Obama dancing with her Dad on stage with Prince at the White House.
