Two months after the Mueller Report was released, print editions of it in book form are still riding high on best-seller lists

But two months after the redacted 448-page document — better known as the Mueller report — was released, commercial print editions of the document in book form are still riding best-seller lists.
Through June 8, Scribner’s Mueller book had sold 205,000 copies; the Skyhorse edition, 85,000; and Melville House’s, 25,000, according to figures from NPD BookScan, which tracks an estimated 85 percent of trade print books sold in the U.S. “This was the most anticipated document in my lifetime,” said Dennis Johnson, co-founder and co-publisher of Melville House, in an interview at the company’s Brooklyn offices.
“We decided to do this format to be cheaper and get the book into more hands, and get it into locations that don’t typically carry trade paperbacks,” said Johnson. Its scarlet cover also contrasts with the more official look of its rival editions. “Hearings will increase interest in the report dramatically,” said Tony Lyons, president and publisher of Manhattan-based Skyhorse Publishing, whose edition includes an introduction by Harvard Law School professor and frequent Trump defender Alan Dershowitz. Public testimony by Mueller in particular could provide another jolt to sales.
