Trump: The Art of the Deal

Billionaire Donald Trump has written more than a dozen books, and Trump: The Art of the Deal, a #1 National Bestseller, was his first. The year was 1987 and the real estate magnate had just turned 40.

Billed as a commonsense guide to personal finance, the book provides behind-the-scenes glimpses of the blockbuster deals that changed Manhattan's skyline. The first chapter outlines a typical week in the life of a deal maker, and it leaves the reader exhausted.

I usually arrive at my office by nine, and I get on the phone. There's rarely a day with fewer than fifty calls, and often it runs to over a hundred, admits Trump.

With assistance from business author Tony Schwartz, Donald Trump discusses the characteristics he feels were essential to his success, and his early real estate experiences with his father, a successful New York developer. The book is dedicated to Donald Trump's parents, Fred and Mary Trump.
