The Invisible Primary

Walter Shapiro is a political columnist for USA Today and author of One Car Caravan: On the Road with the 2004 Democrats Before America Tunes In. The book is his account of what's been called the "invisible primary" - the really early stages of the presidential campaign when candidates are testing the waters speaking to handfuls of people in living rooms and racing to raise money. One Car Caravan follows Dean, Lieberman, Kerry, Gephardt, and Edwards from about the summer of 2002 to the fall of 2003. It was a time when Walter was often the only reporter around.
Walter has a book signing Saturday, January 24th at 2:00 pm at the Borders in Concord.
