Product Information

`Useful, vigorously reported' * New York Times * `Likely the most complete and nuanced life of Trump thus far' * Boston Globe * `Devastating indictment of Trump' * The National * `Trump Revealed is a top-notch, finely balanced example of open-minded factual reportage ... Their impassive, objective account is far more alarming than any finger-jabbing hectoring denunciation. All it does is present facts. It makes no judgements. It simply chronicles' * Tribune * `Painstakingly researched political biography American journalists do so well... well worth reading' * Herald * `Deeply researched and exhaustive study... While the book's approach is relentlessly balanced and fair-minded, the net result will leave the reader frightened and appalled... the implicit conclusion of this important book is that Trump views life as a game and he never expected the voters to take him so seriously ... Perhaps Trump's greatest fear is that in victory he would be exposed as the hollow man he is' * Sunday Times * 'Excellent book... skilful and meticulous... there is plenty to enjoy' -- David Aaronovitch * The Times * `There have been other books on Donald Trump this year but this one did best, by avoiding the pitfalls of being boring or partisan' * The Times Books of the Year *
