Apparently is just over $800,000 per book.
Soon available for "bulk order" everywhere and discount bins shortly thereafter.
Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has agreed to a three-book deal with Crown Publishers, starting with a memoir about her years in the administration of President George W. Bush...
The deal is worth at least $2.5 million, according to two publishing officials with knowledge of the negotiations. The officials asked not to be identified, citing the confidentiality of the talks.
Let's see:
Volume 1: Pout and Prejudice.
Volume 2: Nobody anticipated the price of a Ghost Writer.
Volume 3: I'd tell you to walk a mile in my shoes, but you couldn't afford them.
No word on who will pay Bush himself to color-in his memoirs. Apparently Highlights Magazine has passed on the excerpts.
