Joe Biden‘s memoir, Promise Me, America, will be released on Nov. 17, just weeks after the midterm elections.
In a video, Biden said that the memoir would be “about the challenges we have faced as a nation, about the decisions I made, why I made them. Leading the country through Covid, rebuilding our economy and restoring our democracy after the attack on January 6. Ending our nation’s longest war in Afghanistan, strengthening NATO and supporting Ukraine. It’s about why I chose to run for president and why I chose to step aside. Most of all, it’s about my faith in the promise of America.”
Per publisher Little, Brown, in the memoir “for the first time, [Biden] reveals the deeply agonizing calculation behind his decision in the summer of 2024 to step aside from the presidential race and to put his party and the nation before his personal ambitions.”
In his video, Biden also noted that his treatment for cancer has “been going really well.” Biden previously suggested that his memoir could be published before the November elections, which created some headlines as Democrats are anxious that the focus be on Donald Trump this fall.
The memoir will be published by Little, Brown and runs 448 pages. Former First Lady Jill Biden published her memoir, View from the East Wing, in June.
