Avid Naked Readers

For those who love to read, either old fashioned paper books ( and my preferred way) or the new fangled ebooks. There was a book reading nudist group at one time but i have not found any trace of it. So this will fill the void.

Can you recommend a good bio of Obama?

Preferably not too biased for or against. Now that he has been out of office for awhile, there are a number of books about him; I want to pick just one that is a bio of his whole life, not just his presidency.

A good one to start with is his autobiography, Dreams of My Father, which has a surprising amount of unflattering details of his early life. David Maraniss has a very detailed bio as well (called Barack Obama).

Bringing this old thread back because I found one. Obama: From Promise to Power by David Mendell. Mendell is an investigative journalist, so his job is to be as impartial as possible. It shows in the book.
