The Inauguration of Barack Obama: A Photographic Journal
This is theWashington Post's competition with theTimesbook, above. It costs less, but readers get less. While theTimesbook is a keeper for the ages, this one has a cheesier look to its graphics and no contribution from the newspaper's considerable experts similar to what theTimesoffers in its volume. Apart from five pages by David Maraniss after an all-too-brief foreword by Ben Bradlee, there is little text here other than photo captions. A disappointment.—MHCopyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
