The autobiography by President Emeritus Guido de Marco The Politics of Persuasion (Allied Publications) won first prize in the category for Non-Fiction Prose at the National Book Prize awards ceremony on Thursday.
Also placing first was Natalino Fenech's Richard Ellis The Photography Collection (BDL Publishing).
