Going Rogue: An American Life by Sarah Palin

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.

Vincent's titles include "Same Kind of Different as Me," "The Blood of Lambs" and "Donkey Cons: Sex, Crime and Corruption in the Democratic Party
Once the manuscript was complete, Palin then reportedly spent several intense days in New York working with her editors at HarperCollins.

Publishers hope to capitalize on Americans' fascination with Palin and her continued popularity among conservatives going into the holiday season. "We want to maximize hardcover sales over the holidays," HarperCollins spokeswoman Tina Andreadis told AP Monday
Some political strategists believe Palin is considering a presidential bid in 2012. She is also expected to play a significant role in GOP fundraising going into the 2010 elections.

The title of her book, "Going Rogue," refers to the speculation from late in the 2008presidential campaign that Palin was publicly and unwisely diverging from the views of her running mate, Sen. John McCain of Arizona. Palin later embraced the phrase, defending her outspokenness
