One Nation: What We Can All Do to Save America's Future by Ben Carson, MD

This item is a copy of the book 'One Nation: What We Can All Do to Save America's Future' by Ben Carson, MD, with Candy Carson. The book is presented as a 'NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER', as indicated by text at the top of the front cover. It appears to be a paperback edition, given its flexible appearance in the hand. The cover features a prominent photograph of Ben Carson, smiling warmly and dressed in a dark suit with a tie, standing with his arms crossed over his chest. His image occupies a significant portion of the cover. The title 'ONE NATION' is displayed in large, three-dimensional gold lettering across his mid-section, creating an eye-catching effect. Below the title, the subtitle 'WHAT WE CAN ALL DO TO SAVE AMERICA'S FUTURE' is printed in white text on the dark background of his suit. The author's name, 'BEN CARSON, MD', is prominently featured at the top of the cover in black, bold uppercase letters, with 'WITH CANDY CARSON' appearing in smaller font directly beneath. The predominant color scheme of the cover is white, gold, and dark tones from Carson's suit. The book appears to be in good condition, showing no significant tears, creases, or major wear visible on the front cover. The corners seem relatively sharp, and the color is vibrant. Given the context of the prompt, the item is described as 'Signed by author', which indicates that Ben Carson has personally autographed this particular copy, significantly increasing its collectible value. This autograph is a unique and valuable distinguishing element, though it is not visible in the provided image. The format appears to be a standard non-fiction book size. Its estimated age would be contemporary, likely published in the mid-2010s, given its subject matter and author's public profile during that period. The craftsmanship of the book cover appears to be of standard publishing quality for a mass-market paperback.
