Ron DeSantis will publish a new book in February as his popularity soars trends now

Ron DeSantis has penned a new book chronicling his life in public service, as his popularity soars and speculation grows he will run for president in 2024.

The Republican Florida Governor, who this month won re-election by a landslide, will publish his new book in February. It is being seen by some political analysts as a manifesto, and another step towards his potential White House bid.

The autobiography, called 'The Courage to Be Free: Florida's Blueprint for America's Revival', is expected to cover key moments in DeSantis's life.

The book will tell his story 'growing up in a working-class family, playing in the Little League World Series, working his way through Yale University and Harvard Law School, volunteering for the Navy after 9/11 and serving in Iraq,' Fox News said.

It will also shed new light on his marriage to former news and TV host Casey DeSantis, her battle with breast cancer, and the three children they share together.

DeSantis' popularity has soared in the last two years. In a midterm election that saw results go worse than expected for Republicans, he was a stand-out winner.

He won re-election for a second term as Florida governor with a landslide, beating Democrat Charlie Crist with almost 60 percent of the vote - in further sign of Florida's Republican wave.

Meanwhile, a poll earlier this month weighing up potential 2024 candidates found DeSantis is now seven points ahead of former president Donald Trump.
