Sales For Sarah Palin’s Second Book Spike Unexpectedly
A Time For Choosing ^ | 4/17 | Gary Jackson

Posted on 04/17/2011 9:49:10 AM PDT by curth

Sarah Palin’s second book: America by Heart : Reflections on Family, Faith, and Flag has popped up on the Washington Post’s best seller list months after it was first released, and made it as high as number two on the New York Times best seller list.

From the Post:

A new book this week, though not new to the this particular bestseller list, is Sarah Palin’s 2010 “America By Heart” — the fact that it’s selling well again (at least this past week) seems to defy the notion, popping up in scores of articles lately, that her influence is waning and she’s less of a force than she once was.

After the game changing speech Sarah made on Saturday in Wisconsin, I bet sales of the book will continue to be brisk! On Saturday Sarah threw down the gauntlet and proclaimed to both Barack Obama and the Republican establishment: “Game on!

Sarah ‘s first book, Going Rogue, which came out in late October of 2009, was the number one selling non-fiction book of 2009 and spent many weeks at number one on the New York Times best sellers list.

America By Heart is a follow up to Going Rogue and like the first, is a serious policy book, and an engaging read. Though not as heavily promoted as the first, it sold over a million copies [and counting!] This book is a must read for anyone who wishes to understand how Sarah Palin governed Alaska and how she would govern as President.

In addition to the books Sarah has written herself, great read is The Faith and Values of Sarah Palin, which we reviewed here. The authors, Stephen Mansfield and David A Holland, spent a lot of time with the Palin and Heath families, as well as friends of the family.

This book gives you a serious history, not only of Sarah, but her family, Todd’s family, and Alaska itself. It’s a must read book for those who want to understand Sarah Palin and what makes her tick. You can read my review and listen to Stephen Mansfield read some of the book here.

WooHoo!
It is a great read. My wife gave me a autographed copy for Christmas.

How many books by the left hit number 1 on the NY Times bestseller list?

I bet very few. Who wants to read a bunch of twisted illogical thoughts? :)

Leftist books rarely sell well. The Left doesn't read much. They know it all already.

Don’t forget,” Dreams of My Father” oh, wait, that wasn’t Sarah, that was Bill Ayers.

No, her influence isn’t waning. The left wing press is just trying a new propaganda ploy: Pretend she doesn’t exist, instead of attacking her and her family every day.

But don’t worry, that won’t work either.

This is a marathon and not a sprint and as a runner, Sarah knows how to pace herself to be able to finish strong. The MSM and E-GOP want a 100 yard dash while Sarah is engaged in a 25 kilometer run.

If you'd like to wipe egg off your face and then sit down to a plate of crow, just proclaim that Sarah Palin is over, out and done.

Borders books is closing and they have her book for 90 percent off. This is why. Got one myself.

In the world od Palin, the only thing that is unexpected is failure.

Palin’s second book is inspirational. This is one week before Easter and some people still give Easter gifts, especially conservative Christians. No mystery here.

I’m glad her book is still wanted. I think it should be required reading for all school children. High schoolers are still children aren’t they? sometimes it hard to tell.
