Description
This title documents Obama's unprecedented journey to the White House. This is a beautifully produced commemorative album of newspaper pages depicting landmarks in his campaign. This is the only book to include front covers, speeches and photographs from Obama's initial declaration of candidacy, his Democratic nomination, election and inauguration. When Barack Obama became president - elected on the 4th of November 2008 - he transformed Martin's Luther King's dream into reality. Obama, and the 66.3 million Americans who voted for him, proved to the world that all things are possible and the day after, people the world over lined up to buy newspapers as souvenirs. The demand was unprecedented, with stands and shops quickly selling out. Featuring over 100 domestic and foreign newspapers and depicting all the landmarks in Obama's groundbreaking campaign, this gorgeous commemorative album documents an important part of history, that now everybody can own. This stunning keepsake is a must-have for all who experienced this remarkable moment...and for future generations, too.

Bibliography
After World War Two England was on her knees, so the call went out to the British Empire for volunteers to help rebuild the 'Mother Country'. Young men and women from different Caribbean islands were quick to respond, paying the considerable sum of GBP28.10s to board HMT Empire Windrush - the 'ship of dreams' that would take them to their new lives. The motives and back-stories of these West Indian people is a key part of the Windrush story, one that has never been fully told. This powerful narrative reveals what happened on board that ship, which was packed with young, excited people who had never before left their parents, their parishes - let alone their islands. In the course of the memorable two-week voyage there were parties, friendships made and broken, fights, gambling, racism, sex - and discussions of God and love
