The publisher of Michael Wolff's new book "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House" can't print copies fast enough.Henry Holt is facing a backlog of orders from Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other booksellers. The publishing house is rushing to print more books, a person with direct knowledge of the matter told CNNMoney.
A Henry Holt spokeswoman said sales figures are not yet available for "Fire and Fury." But it has been No. 1 on Amazon's best sellers list since Wednesday, when the first excerpts from the book were published online.
The e-book edition is available anytime, of course -- it's the hardcover deliveries that are delayed. Amazon is warning customers of a "2 to 4 week" wait, although copies could ship sooner if the printing schedule allows it.
From coast to coast, bookstores have been reportedly selling out of the book, if they had any copies in the first place.

I expect Kindle sales to go up, as well, for Amazon. They don't push the idea that you can read their e-books on any device all that much. They'd like to sell more Kindle devices.

That would be the translators who are busy translating the book into French, Spanish, Russian, Arabic and Chinese.
