David Maraniss' highly anticipated — and incredibly dense — biography of Barack Obama finally hit the shelves today, offering a fresh look into the early life and family history of the 44th president.

Although Obama doesn't make an appearance until the seventh chapter, Barack Obama: The Story does contain some pretty salacious stories about Obama's childhood in Hawaii and Indonesia, his college years in California and New York, and his early days as a community organizer on the South Side of Chicago. (Hint: There's more nudity and pot-smoking than you'd expect.)

Many of the stories — including details about his New York girlfriends — have been previously reported. But we've dug up some other interesting intel about the President that might surprise you.
