Bio on Palin coming up
Zondervan will release a biography on vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, as early as October.
Zondervan, which describes itself as the world’s leading Christian publishers of books, said the new biography “Sarah Palin: A New Kind of Leader,” will be written by author Joe Hilley.
The book will explore themes from her career in politics, her life as a hockey mom, and her strongly held Christian faith, explaining how they influence her new style of leadership and align with our changing economy in the information age.
“Regardless of your political persuasion, it is clear that Sarah Palin has quickly electrified the 2008 election and sparked a nationwide dialogue and debate,” Moe Girkins, president and CEO of Zondervan, said in the publishing company’s statement.
“We are honored to publish this book that will provide readers with a comprehensive look into the life and rising political career of Sarah Palin.”
Hilley, of Alabama, said he will explore the leadership principles that have jettisoned Alaska Gov. Palin into the national spotlight.
“We live in an age that values relationship over authority and instant information over accuracy, so breadth of knowledge and depth of conviction are the most prized commodities for our leaders,” Hilley said in Zondervan’s statement.
“Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin brings both of these qualities and more to her new role as John McCain’s running mate and I’m eager for readers to have the opportunity to know her and her brand of leadership more thoroughly.”
