Taylor Swift has announced that a book featuring never-before-seen photos from her record-breaking Eras tour, as well as rehearsal footage and reflections she wrote, will be released on November 29th.

The pop star appeared on Tuesday's (October 15) episode of Good morning America to share the news as she unveiled her latest album The Tortured Poets Section: The Anthology would be available for the first time on vinyl and CD exclusively in the US department store Target.

“We will begin the final leg of the Eras Tour this week, which is difficult to understand,” Swift, 34, wrote in a statement on Instagram.

“This tour was the most wonderful experience and I knew I wanted to capture the memories we made together in a special way. Well, two ways actually.”

The 239-page book, priced at $39.99 (£30.57), contains over 500 images, including previously unseen shots from each “era” segment of Swift's ongoing tour.

Described by the artist as an “official retrospective” of her concert series, which she describes as “the most wondrous tour of my life”, it also includes images of instruments, sets, designer sketches and costumes used during the tour.

Swift contributed personal thoughts and notes to the book, written during her performances at sold-out stadiums in cities around the world.

“Here is the official retrospective of the most wondrous tour of my life, my beloved Eras Tour,” she said in an additional statement. “Thank you to the fans who came to this show. You made the Eras Tour what it became.”

Swift has released several “versions” of TTPD, which was released on April 19th, including limited vinyl edition with various artwork and bonus tracks.

Swift played the eighth and final show of the UK and European leg of her Eras tour in August, bringing along surprise guests Florence and the Machine and her long-time collaborator Jack Antonoff.

The concert at Wembley Stadium in London on Tuesday, August 20, marked the first time Swift performed “Florida,” her duet with Welch The Tortured Poets Departmentat a live show.

She also sang an acoustic duet of 2019's “Death by a Thousand Cuts” and 2017's “Getaway Car,” both co-written and produced with Antonoff.

Last month, she drew the ire of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump by supporting Democratic nominee Kamala Harris and her running mate, Tim Walz.

In a lengthy Instagram post after watching the presidential debate, she said Harris was “fighting for the rights and causes I believe in.”

Trump later declared, “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT,” in an all-caps post on his Truth Social account.
