Beskrivning
Authoritative, timely and provocative, this deeply researched biography of Donald Trump provides a complex portrait of the man who despite broad scepticism – may be the next president of the United States.
Co-authored by Washington Post investigative political reporter Michael Kranish and senior editor Marc Fisher, this comprehensive book documents Trump’s fascinating family roots; his aggressive efforts to make a name for himself in New York social circles; and his penchant for big bets on real estate, branded businesses and, ultimately, on himself. The authors, seasoned journalists who interviewed Trump for this book, examine everything from his youthful alliance with the power-broker Roy Cohn to his alleged dealings with organized crime and his controversial projects in New York City, Atlantic City, Florida, Scotland and Azerbaijan. The authors examine Trump’s wealth, the evolution of his political beliefs and his peculiar identity as a ’billionaire’ businessman, celebrity, global brand, television star and, now, candidate for the most powerful office in the world.
Few individuals have ever roamed so widely through such diverse realms as real estate, sports, entertainment and national politics. How has Trump’s life informed his bold statements on the economy, immigration, race, global trade, terrorism and women?
Drawn from in-depth reporting by The Washington Post, Trump Revealed is no less than essential reading as the 2016 American presidential election looms.
