I wrote earlier of President Bush’s passion for reading books. Now comes an article about the books read by President-elect Barack Obama.

Obama has authored two books already, one an autobiography. It is interesting to note this article says he is the primary author his books. If true, this is unusual for a politician. Many employ other ghost writers to do the work that comes out under their names.

It is always interesting to peruse the bookshelves of others to see what stimulates their minds. This list of Obama’s helps to guage his interests as we settle in to get to know him for the next few years.
