McCain's book, "Cindy McCain: Elegance, Good Will and Hope for a New America," will be available for download Monday. Kindle may turn out to be the only opportunity to read this one; the book only goes into print if John McCain wins the election.

Both books are being published by The Globe Pequot Press.

Also coming soon to Kindle, a potential bigger seller than either first lady books: “How a Hockey Mom Turned Alaska's Political
Establishment Upside Down” by Sarah Palin.
