March 10 (UPI) -- A self-published book titled Reasons to Vote For Democrats became a No. 1 bestseller on Amazon for its unusual gimmick: the pages are all blank.

Michael J. Knowles, a Yale graduate and correspondent for conservative website Daily Wire, self-published the 266-page tome, which contains only headers and a bibliography in its text.

The Amazon page for the book describes it as "the most exhaustively researched and coherently argued Democrat Party apologia to date."

"Reasons To Vote For Democrats: A Comprehensive Guide is a political treatise sure to stand the test of time," the page reads. "A must-have addition to any political observer's coffee table."

The front cover includes a one-word quote from conservative commentator Ben Shapiro: "Thorough."

Knowles said Thursday on Fox & Friends that "what's really great about this book, you can go cover to cover in about 15, 20 seconds."

"It took a very long time to research this book," Knowles said. "When I observed their record and reasons to vote for them -- on reasons of economics or foreign policy or homeland security or civil rights and so on -- I realized it was probably best to just leave all the pages blank."

The book bears a striking similarity to a November release by David King, titled: Why Trump Deserves Trust, Respect & Admiration.

The book, which also bears nothing but blank pages, is rated 4.4 out of 5 stars on Amazon.

"Despite years of research, we could not find anything to say on this subject, so please feel free to use this book for notes," King's description reads.
