The President’s Desk is the story of America as seen through the eyes of its most powerful piece of furniture. Standing in the most important office in the land for over a hundred years, it has been sat at by no less than twenty-four of the greatest men who ever lived (I’m leaving out Nixon, obviously). This epic retelling of the history of the United States takes us from the desk’s early life as the humble timbers of a barquentine frozen in the waters of the Arctic, through its transformation by decree of Queen Victoria, to over a century in the Oval Office as an eventual antique.

    Thanks. Actually picked up a hard copy of this in Target the other day but it was $20 so I put it back. This is a bargain.

  • [Deactivated] on 31/12/2014 - 14:14

    it's $us9.49 on the US site now

    Clicked "Buy Now with One Click", asked me to log in (even though I already am logged in?), entered my details but then got Bad Gateway. Don't know what's going on there. Great deal though.

    Edit: Got it to work eventually. Thanks for the deal!

    Just had a look and it still is 1.32 on Amazon US.

    • spiritek on 31/12/2014 - 15:20

      Weird shows as $9.59 for me on the US store.

      EDIT: I changed browsers and it showed $1.32, but when you try to buy it says the price is different and changes it to $9.59

      • uder on 31/12/2014 - 17:21

        Bought it for $1.32 from Amazon US no problems.

  • todmanpla on 31/12/2014 - 15:36

    Yeah, I have a US account and it's $9.49 USD, both in Chrome/IE and the Kindle store on my Kindle.

    Not worth switching to the AU store either… The series I'm currently reading, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is $11.99 USD vs $38AUD.
    Game of thrones is even crazier, $19.99USD vs $89.99AUD

    • kwijybo on 31/12/2014 - 15:54

      I've removed the link to Amazon US in the description.

      I'd already purchased the Kindle edition when it was first released so didn't pick up the fault myself.

    Pity that Amazon forces you to change (migrate) from the US Amazon account to a Australian Amazon account for books. I decided against it.

    • theguyrules on 31/12/2014 - 15:45

      Yeah, its a huge difference.

      Pity that Amazon is an anti-competitive, anti-union, tax-avoiding, bully of a company.

        Hell yeah for anti-union, this is one of the reasons I choose them over the alternatives!

    I just purchased this one (about two minutes ago) from the US store for US$1.32, so it must have been a glitch before. There was no change between the display price and the price at checkout.

    Edit: Using Safari.

    • d123 on 04/01/2015 - 01:46

      Thanks Chocsyrup. I picked one up too!

  • No on 31/12/2014 - 16:13

    Can you buy it with coins?

    • [Deactivated] on 31/12/2014 - 16:54

      Nope. Coins are only for games and apps

    Um, is anyone going to comment on the book?
    Is it a good read? Therefore good deal?

    Thanks.
