New to USA Today Bestsellers, 11/19
A book that’s not new to the list has reappeared at #81, Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin, in the news as Obama chooses his cabinet. Library holds are very heavy in some libraries.
It’s a sign of the times; the paperback reprint of The Forgotten Man: A New History of the Great Depression by Amity Shlaes (Harper Perennial) on the list. The hardcover, published in another time, did not appear on USA Today‘s list, although it did appear for six weeks on the NYT extended NF list last year. Library holds on this one are also strong.
