The Book of Sarah Progress Report (July 15, 2009)

When we published our last update, we promised to check back in after The Book of Sarah, an informational website which chronicles the political career of Gov. Palin, had its 1,000th item posted.

That milestone was reached Sunday, thanks in no small part to the media buzz over Gov. Palin's announcement July 3 that she would resign later this month. We added quite a few items from 2008 and the first quarter of 2009 as well. The site is considerably more robust now, and news reports, op-eds, editorials, blog posts, videos, photos and such are being added on a daily basis. We will continue to add new items as they are published, and we'll be filling the gaps with older material as well.

If you're aware of an item that is conspicuous by its absence from The Book of Sarah, please e-mail us or post a comment. Be sure to include a link to the source. We hope you will use this web resource for your research on Gov. Sarah Palin, or if you need a documented source to back up a point you want to make on a political discussion forum.

After the 2008 election, Sarah Palin was liberated from the constraints that the McCain campaign staff had placed on her. Now, as a new chapter in her career is being written, she will be free from the limitations of the Alaska governors office. It should be an exciting journey, and we will will be documenting it every step of the way, both on this blog and at The Book of Sarah.

  1. When you mention to point out items conspicuous by their absence I am assuming you are not referring to very recent items. As of now, up to what date do you consider the Book of Sarah to be more or less complete?

    A trivial point: in your welcome to the Book of Sarah there seems to be a misprint (complimentary instead of complementary)

  2. Oh, it's nowhere near complete up to any date. There are literally thousands upon thousands of media items regarding Sarah Palin, and we have only entered one thousand of them.

    I'll fix the typo, thanks.
