Yesterday I wrote that you might want to get in line
now for Sarah Palin's book, due out on November 17th. Today you can beat the rush. You may pre-order
Going Rogue: An American Life here and
here.
The Wall Street Journal reports:
The
book, which will be published on November 17, was a crash project. Ms.
Palin actually moved temporarily to San Diego after she resigned the
governorship in July so she could be close to her collaborator, Lynn
Vincent. I bumped into Ms. Vincent, a former editor at the
Christian-oriented World magazine, in New York a few weeks ago, where
she had parked herself in a hotel close to the offices of HarperCollins
while working on the book's final edits.
Ms. Vincent didn't
reveal any details about the book, but did acknowledge it will describe
Ms. Palin's frustration over her treatment by the staffers she
inherited from the McCain campaign after her surprise pick as the GOP
vice presidential nominee last year. Ms. Palin was booked on grueling
interviews with hostile reporters while talk-show hosts such as Glenn
Beck couldn't even get through to her aides. Mr. Beck tells me he was
stunned when he picked up the phone one day just before the election to
discover Sarah Palin was on the other end of the line. "She explained
that she had been blocked from reaching her audience, so she was now
'going rogue' and booking her own interviews," Mr. Beck told me. "I was
thrilled she had burst out of the cage they'd built for her and we were
finally talking."
That incident was the only time Ms. Palin
declared her independence from her keepers, and it's fitting that the
title of her upcoming book will be "Going Rogue: An American Life."
Barnes and Noble offered this
synopsis:
Sarah
Palin burst onto the political scene at the height of the 2008
presidential campaign and overnight became a national sensation. Adored
by the right, bitterly reviled by the left, she is the most polarizing
figure to emerge in American politics in decades. Yet for all the dirt
digging and gossip that has surrounded her, very little is actually
known about who she is, what she believes, and above all, about her
plans for the future. In her new book, Sarah Palin tells the story of
her Alaskan upbringing, her marriage and family life, her political
career, her religious beliefs, and her meteoric rise to national
prominence. With her customary blunt common sense, she sets the record
straight about the many myths and lies that have been spun around her
and lays out her vision for an America that is strong, independent, and
free.
A couple things are certain: This book will be an
instant bestseller, and the world will get a good look at Sarah Palin
as she is--her own voice detailing her own experiences and sharing her
own vision for America.
