Request that your book be signed at the author's talk
Signed books make great gifts!!!
Did you know that it is possible to get a signed copy of our event books? We are best able to accommodate your request if you order signed copies at least 48 hours in advance
of the author's appearance. If you are interested in obtaining a signed book from
an event occurring tonight or tomorrow - or from an event that has already passed, please call the store at
202-364-1919 or 1-800-722-0790 to confirm availability and to ensure that we receive your order more quickly.
Pre-order a signed book by selecting the book from our events calendar and adding a request for a signed book in the order comments field.
Former President Carter kept a diary during his term as Chief Executive, and by the time he left office he had written some 5,000 pages on issues such as energy, the Camp David Accords, and the Iranian hostage crisis, as well as domestic politics. Now he has gathered selections from these journals, adding his current reflections on past events.
President
Jimmy Carter has rescheduled his book signing at Politics and Prose for
Tuesday, November 30 from 11:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. The signing will take
place at the bookstore and is not ticketed; the line will form on a first-come,
first-served basis, beginning when the store opens at 9 a.m.
Please
note: President Carter will only be signing until 12:30 so we cannot guarantee
that everyone in line will get a book signed. In an effort to get as many
people through the line as possible, we will be allowing two (2) books per
person to be signed (one of which must be a copy of the new book, WHITE HOUSE
DIARY). In addition, we are not taking any new orders for signed copies in
absentia. Lastly, President Carter will be signing only (no personalizations or
dedications) and will not be posing for photographs. We thank you for your
understanding and hope to see you on the 30th.
