Former Democratic President Barack Obama has written a book about his time as President of the United States. The name of the book is ‘A Promised Land’.
The book was published on November 18, just two weeks after the 46th presidential election in the United States. Publisher Penguin Random House has printed 3.4 million copies of the first edition of the book.
The book sold about 9 hundred thousand copies on the first day and many readers had already ordered the book. The publishing house says that A Promised Land has broken all records in all the books that have come on the market so far.
My Life, written by former US President Bill Clinton, sold 4 hundred thousand copies on the day of its publication. Another president, George W. Bush’s Decision Point, sold 220,000 copies on the day it was published. So far, these two books have sold 3.5 millions and 4 million copies respectively. The publishing house hopes that this book written by Obama will sell more.
Barack Obama, the 44th president of the United States, has written three books before. These are ‘Dreams from My Father’, ‘The Audacity of Hope’ and the children’s book ‘Of the I Sing’. Former United States First Lady Michelle Obama also published the memoir, which sold more than 10 million copies in five months.
Barack Obama was President of the United States for two terms from 2009 to 2016. Obama was hugely popular. What he couldn’t say while in the White House is revealed in this book.
Commenting on the newly published book, Obama tweeted, Nothing compares to the feeling of finishing a book. I’m proud to do it.
Publishing house Penguin Random House says the six-page memoir will be published in 25 languages.
The book cites the global economic crisis, the Healthcare Reform Act, and the 2011 killing of al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden during a US operation in Pakistan.
