Amazon launched an area on its site dedicated to helping customers find and discover books and exclusive content related to the 2004 presidential race. The Election 2004 boutique will include interviews with politicians, pundits and award-winning authors and journalists, exclusive to Amazon.com.
"Amazon.com customers are turning to us as they educate themselves about the upcoming election, looking for topical books and other resources as they decide whom to vote for in November," said Tom May, editor for the Amazon.com Book store. "We wanted to make it even easier for our customers to find and discover helpful information by offering them exclusive election commentary from some of the leading figures discussing the presidential race, as well as their recommendations for helpful election year reads."
The Election 2004 boutique on Amazon.com is located in the Great Political Debate area of the Amazon.com Book store, which highlights relevant titles for customers on topics such as foreign policy, domestic issues, the conservative and liberal debates, political satire and humor, political and news magazines and more.
