Demand for info on Sarah Palin producing waves in book publishing

Published by gruffalo84 under Publishing news Edit This

I’ve written quite a few posts now on Kaylene Johnson’s biography on Sarah Palin, Sarah: How a Hockey Mom Turned Alaska’s Political Establishment Upside Down. Although I would like to mention that the book has gone back to press again for a 100,000 printing, bringing to total circulation of paperbacks to 350,000. Epicenter Press is having a great year!

But of course, the demand for information on the new VP pick is raging. Two new books on Sarah Palin will crash the market; Adams Media will publish 101 Things You—and John McCain—Didn’t Know About Sarah Palin and Zondervan will publish Sarah Palin: A New Kind of Leader. Both books will pub before the election.

According to PW Daily:

In Sarah Palin: A New Kind of Leader, author Joe Hilley explores themes from Palin’s career, family life and Christian faith to illustrate the leadership principles that guide her. Zondervan plans a 100,000-copy first printing…

As for 101 Things You—and John McCain—Didn’t Know About Sarah Palin by Gregory Bergman:

It had an estimated print run of 25,000 planned. The $9.95 paperback features content based on reported Sarah Palin facts, with humorous commentary… The book will also be available as a Kindle e-book, and a Web site, 101thingsaboutsarahpalin.com, will go live by September 22.

Which one do YOU want to read? I’m liking Adams’s version right now… (the one the Dems will be buying, right?)

One response so far
