Miami - Former President George W Bush will kick off this year's international book fair in Miami.

Bush is scheduled to speak at the 27th annual Miami Book Fair International, which runs from November 14-21. The former president will present his memoir Decision Points, on November 14 at 4 pm.

Book fair organisers told The Associated Press that tickets to Bush's presentation are $40. That includes a presigned copy of the book, which comes out November 9. Crown Publishers has said it will have a print run of 1.5 million copies.
