POLITICO, Random House Launch Online Bookstore
POLITICO has taken its second step into the book business today with the launch of an online bookstore, in partnership with Random House, of political books curated by POLITICO’s editors.
“POLITICO Bookshelf” will be operated by Random House featuring books on current events, politics, history and biography. A quick gander through its debut arrangement shows books ranging from Herman Cain’s campaign autobiography to Matt Taibbi’s “Griftopia.”
It also features a prominent opportunity to pre-order POLITICO’s first step into book publishing: the e-book “Playbook 2012: The Right Fights Back,” by Mike Allen and Evan Thomas and edited by Random House's Jon Meacham, due out Nov. 30 on Random House Publishing Group.
