Candidates have hit the campaign trail, debates are heating up the airwaves and Michelle and Barack have visited The View, which means the U.S. Presidential campaign is in full swing. With the election just around the corner, we thought about dedicating this blog to the rigorous analysis of politics, polling and public opinion…but then we remembered we’re an audio book company. So we thought it was probably best to just recommend some great political books instead.

We’ve got books that offer an in-depth and fascinating look into the lives of Kennedy, Johnson and Obama as well as some other great books including Time to Start Thinking by Edward Luce, which covers a bunch of hot topics including the economy—a must-listen that The New York Times praises for “raising the right questions at the right moment.”

Whether you live in a red state, a blue state or heck, even Canada, these books will inform you, entertain you and get you into the election spirit!
