Features: [Editor's Recommendation] This book delves deeply into Donald Trump of 2004, with several different themes running throughout. You think you know him, but you don't. Even if you've watched The Apprentice, even if you've read all his best-selling books. Wondering what truly made him famous? Wondering how he operates? When Donald Trump heard Slater was writing this book, he once threatened to sue Slater. Later, he changed his mind and let Slater get completely close to every aspect of his life. Slater attended Trump's briefing sessions, accompanied him on site inspections, rode in Trump's helicopters and jets, watched him on QVC's shopping channel, and attended The Apprentice rehearsals. Slater saw the Trump in front of the company, and also the Trump in private. Slater also interviewed everyone around Trump. Slater's book is well-researched and convincing. This book presents the real Trump: unfiltered and engaging. With the success of The Apprentice, Donald Trump became a legend. He is a well-known billionaire, and his name is a globally recognized brand. Despite numerous descriptions of him, no one has captured his essence. This time, Donald Trump broke the mold and allowed Robert Slater to fully enter his world, conducting 100 hours of close-up, on-the-ground interviews. Wherever Trump went, Slater followed. Slater also interviewed a total of 150 of Trump's former employees, colleagues, and even his competitors. This book comprehensively introduces Trump: he is a businessman, a strategist, a survivor, or a celebrity. You will learn how Trump transformed from an unknown real estate developer into a global real estate giant; you will see how he conducts business and discover many lessons he has never revealed before; you will witness how he handles the media and how he uses his fame twice to save his casinos. Most importantly, you will understand how Trump views his fame, his business empire, and his ultra-luxurious private life.
