And here's how he does it: the art of the deal. Beginning with a week in Trump's high-stakes life, Trump: The Art of the Deal gives us Trump in action. We see just how he operates day to day, how he runs his business and how he runs his life, as he chats with friends and family, clashes with enemies, efficiently beautifies the face of the New York City skyline... and plans the tallest building in the world. "Reads like Trump unvarnished, vainglorious, combative, ambitious, and unafraid to let us know about it. I found it fascinating all the way." - Mike Wallace "He makes one believe in the American Dream again." The New York Times Concluding chapter describes how a week of deals, selected by Donald, turned out after some time. And they just so happened to turn out pretty fabulous.
