Palgrave-Macmillan, a division of St. Martin’s Press, will publish Spieler’s book about Sara Jane Moore and the politically turbulent 1970’s

I'm Sorry I Missed, Mr. President
The assassination attempt on President Gerald Ford

Author - Geri Spieler

WHAT IF ... a country club mother and doctor's wife
       Took DEAD AIM at the President of the United States
           And came within six inches of killing him?

WHAT IF ... we find out she was also:
       ... a paid informant for the FBI
          ... a double agent for the radical underground
             ... picked up and released by the Secret Service just
                 14 hours before she tried to kill the President?

WHAT IF ... her release showed us fixable government mistakes
      ... But, unfixed, they fed into the tragedies of Sept. 11, 2001?

GERI SPIELER, author and researcher,
tells the compelling story of Sara Jane Moore —
the only woman who ever fired a shot at an American President

GERI, who has known Sara Jane for almost 30 years,
did groundbreaking investigative research for this book —
And found shocking material never before released

 “Thanks for trusting me with   Sorry I Missed, Mr. President.  What a wild ride! Bombs blowing up in federal buildings; judges shot; seventy people murdered in the Zebra Killings.  Just an amazing era: you’ve been a fine tour guide through it.

Sara Jane Moore is a compelling figure. Willful, stubborn, frustrating. When that stewardess carried her baby down the plane stairs in West Virginia, and Sally wasn’t with them. What a chilling moment. For the first time, we realized what this woman was capable of. And, yet, this same woman managed to charm an Academy-Award winning Hollywood player into marriage; and gain the confidence of Randolph Hearst. She’s truly an enigma, and the story of her transformation into a violent revolutionary is riveting.”
