The most current and definitive investigation into the life and times of the President of the United States, Donald Trump. Trump Revealed was reported by a team of award-winning Washington Post journalists and co-authored by investigative political reporter Michael Kranish and senior editor Marc Fisher. Trump Revealed offers the most thorough and wide-ranging examination of Donald Trump's public and private lives to date, from his upbringing in Queens and formative years at the New York Military Academy, to his turbulent careers in real estate and entertainment, to his astonishing rise as the Republican presidential nominee and now President-elect. The book is based on the investigative reporting of more than two dozen Washington Post reporters and researchers who leveraged their expertise in politics, business, legal affairs, sports and other areas. The effort was guided by a team of editors headed by Executive Editor Martin Baron, who joined the newspaper in 2013 after his successful tenure running The Boston Globe. His team's investigation of sexual abuse in the Catholic Church inspired the Academy Award-winning film Spotlight, which stars Michael Keaton, Mark Ruffalo and Rachel McAdams.

Review:

`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 *
