Unknown Secrets of the Known

Former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld has announced the name and release date of his upcoming memoir.

The book, “Known and Unknown,” is said to be "both a fascinating narrative for today’s readers and an unprecedented resource for tomorrow’s historians," by Adrian Zackheim, whose firm Sentinel is publishing the memoir.

Rumsfeld served as defense secretary under Presidents Gerald Ford and George W. Bush. He also served in various other positions, including four terms in the House of Representatives, a partial stint as White House Chief of Staff under Ford, and leading roles in two large corporations.

According to an article by Julie Bosman of the New York Times, publishers promise "revealing details" from his extensive government career, as well as bits about people ranging from Margaret Thatcher to Elvis Presley and Dick Cheney to Saddam Hussein.

I don't know about you, but I am pretty excited about the memoir's Jan. 25th arrival.
