Going Rogue is the #1 New York Times bestselling memoir from Sarah Palin, one of America’s most beloved and controversial political figures.

Palin charts her rise from small-town city council meetings and the mayor’s office in Wasilla to the Alaska governor’s mansion, taking on entrenched party leaders and oil-industry monopolies along the way.

The memoir details her battles over natural gas pipelines and state ethics reform before the national whirlwind of the 2008 presidential race. Alaska serves as the backdrop for her account of grassroots governance, high-stakes energy policy, and public service amidst intense national scrutiny.

Now with new material, Going Rogue offers plain talk from a true American original about her life, her career, and the future of the country she loves.

• Fiscal Conservatism: Recounts balancing state budgets by vetoing hundreds of millions in legislative spending, eliminating small-business inventory taxes in Wasilla, and auctioning the governor’s executive jet on eBay.
• Vice Presidential Candidates: Offers a behind-the-scenes perspective on joining Senator John McCain’s 2008 national ticket, preparing for debates, and navigating media scrutiny while her son Track deployed to Iraq.
• Family and Faith: Chronicles raising five children in the Last Frontier, welcoming her son Trig following a prenatal Down syndrome diagnosis, and drawing strength from personal convictions during high-stakes campaigns.
