Maryland Democratic Gov. Wes Moore will release a book on national politics next year, just as the 2028 presidential campaign cycle is expected to heat up.
On Wednesday, the publishing house Henry Holt & Co. told The Associated Press that Mr. Moore’s “Repair: Healing a Divided Nation” will be published on March 9.
The book will offer a “path forward that leaves no one behind,” the publisher said.

Every president in the 21st century has published a book in the lead-up to his first election to the White House.
The 48-year-old governor won a second term on Election Day.
He has denied presidential ambitions, but during a gubernatorial debate, he passed on committing to serving his full term.
On Tuesday, when asked by Politico if the next president should be a governor, Mr. Moore replied, “I think yes.”
Mr. Moore campaigned for House candidates outside of Maryland during the midterms and successfully advocated for the state’s Question 3 ballot measure, which enables the Legislature to gerrymander its congressional map.
He framed the Question 3 campaign as a fight with President Trump and collaborated with former President Barack Obama.
In a statement released by the publisher, Mr. Moore said it would make a national political statement while drawing on his Maryland political experience.
“In Maryland, I’ve seen what happens when good people do hard things, even in the face of unimaginable odds. This book documents those stories, as well as other memories of service from my life inside and outside of politics,” he said.
“This book is about how we can rediscover our common humanity and relearn our common purpose.”
Mr. Moore also wrote the 2010 book “The Other Wes Moore: One Name, Two Fates.”
