Price $14.95

There is no one quite like her. Michelle Obama. This is the first book to tell the astonishing story of a woman whose intellect, verbal flair, and poise are certain to make her one of the most influential First Ladies in history. A woman whose remark, "For the first time in my adult life I am really proud of my country," did her husbands campaign no good. A woman whose impassioned speech to the Democratic National Convention may have helped win him the Oval Office. A woman touted as a future presidential candidate herself. Readers are given a revealing and intimate look at Michelle Obamas remarkable life-from her Chicago childhood to her education at Princeton and Harvard, from how she first met Barack Obama at the prestigious law firm where they were the only African-Americans, to her role as his closest adviser, and to her own political beliefs. For Michelle, family comes first, and-like so many women who struggle between family and career-she seriously weighed her husbands presidential ambitions before giving her stamp of approval. Apparently she struck a hard bargain: he had to give up smoking.
