Picador, 2010. Foxing throughout, crease the length of spine.

The editor of the "New Yorker" and bestselling author of "King of the World" turns his attention to Barack Obama and a defining moment in American history. 'I'm here because somebody marched. I'm here because you all sacrificed for me. I stand on the shoulders of giants. I thank the Moses generation; but we've got to remember, now, that Joshua still had a job to do...There are still battles that need to be fought; some rivers that need to be crossed...The previous generation, the Moses generation, pointed the way. They took us 90 per cent of the way there. We still got that 10 per cent in order to cross over to the other side. So the question, I guess, that I have today is what's called of us in this Joshua generation? What do we do in order to fulfill that legacy; to fulfill the obligations and the debt that we owe to those who allowed us to be here today?' - Barack Obama, Selma, Alabama, March 2007
