Biden will publish ‘Promise Me, America’ memoir after the November midterm elections
The memoir will cover his decision to end his reelection bid and his treatment for cancer, with a tour and interviews planned.
- Former President Joe Biden will publish a memoir titled "Promise Me, America" on Nov. 17, Little, Brown and Company told The Associated Press. The book covers his term, economic issues, and his decision to end his reelection bid.
- Modern presidents since Harry Truman have published books about their White House years, a tradition Biden continues. The title echoes his 2017 memoir, "Promise Me, Dad," which centered on the death of his son, Beau Biden.
- Scheduled for release two weeks after midterm elections, the memoir could raise concerns within his party. Many Democrats remain divided on Biden and hope to keep the fall campaign focused on Republican President Donald Trump's record.
- Readers may seek answers regarding his health, particularly the June 2024 debate against Trump that led to his withdrawal. Former first lady Jill Biden noted in "View from the East Wing" that the White House initially claimed he suffered from a cold.
- "Promise Me, America" arrives during declining nonfiction sales, though recent political bestsellers include Vice President JD Vance's "Communion." Presidential memoirs typically secure deals worth at least seven figures, though Little, Brown declined to release financial details.
