Description: He has a line of stylish clothing and bottled water emblazoned with his name and unmistakable image--yet he once needed a loan from his siblings to stay afloat. His name is plastered on some of the most magnificent hotels and casinos in the world--yet his casino company, swamped in debt, was forced into bankruptcy. This is the world of Donald Trump, full of glitz, glamour, and other people's money. Yet despite glaring cracks in the shimmering façade, the myth and the image have remained stubbornly impenetrable to a fascinated public--perhaps even to Trump himself. In this unique look inside the life of one of the world's most charismatic businessmen, entrepreneurs, and larger-than-life personalities, New York Times investigative reporter Timothy L. O'Brien pulls back the velvet curtain surrounding the wizard of hype known simply as The Donald.--From publisher description.
