ESSENCE has followed the journey of this first family since long before they entered the national spotlight. President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama, became America’s first African-American president and First Lady. This uplifting, beautifully illustrated 96-page salute to the Obamas commemorates their time in the White House and celebrates their significant moments.

Among the highlights:

  • The growth of Sasha and Malia from children into elegant young ladies
  • Be Fearless: an essay from the First Lady herself on her keys to success
  • Lavish and intimate photography showcasing the special moments of the Obama presidency
  • The full text of President Obama’s powerful and important eulogy in South Carolina of the Honorable Reverend Clementa C. Pinckney.
