California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s memoir, Young Man in a Hurry, briefly landed on national best‑seller lists earlier this year, but newly disclosed data shows the book’s apparent success was largely driven by Newsom himself. According to sales tracking and federal filings, the memoir sold roughly 97,000 print copies since its February release—but nearly two‑thirds of those copies, about 67,000, were purchased and distributed by Newsom’s own political action committee, the Campaign for Democracy.  The PAC spent approximately $1.56 million buying the books.

John Gerardi in for John Broeske.
