Trump: The Saga of America's Most Powerful Real Estate Baron
By Jerome Tuccille 
2004/02 - Beard Books 1587982234 - Paperback - Reprint - 272 pp. US$34.95 The spirit of New York City lives in this fast-moving and exciting biography. Publisher Comments
This is the remarkable unfinished saga of an extraordinary American. When this book was first published in 1985, Donald J. Trump was scarcely into his fourth decade. He had made the leap from local New York City boy who had made good to a national and even world-prominent figure. It all started some ten years earlier when Trump gambled that New York City would rebound from its financial morass. People laughed and scoffed at the time, but he was right, and he has profited mightily from his faith and vision. This is compelling reading about the inside machinations of his glamorous world.
From BookNews: Now that Donald Trump is braying at all of America on his own reality TV show, here is the paper reprint of an unauthorized biography of the controversial New York developer, who prefers to control whatever buzz is generated about him. The author, an investment analyst as well as a writer, interviewed family members and business associates but did not receive the cooperation of the man himself. The work, competently if not sparklingly written, takes readers through 1987 and a prediction that "Donald Trump will endure"—QED these 17 years later. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
