Washington, Aug 1 : Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Bob Woodward will come out with a book on Donald Trump in which he describes life inside the White House and how the president makes decisions on major foreign and domestic policies.
“Fear: Trump in the White House” will be published on September 11.
Drawing from several interviews with firsthand sources, meeting notes, files, documents and personal diaries, “Fear” brings to light the debates that drive decision-making in the Oval Office, the Situation Room, Air Force One and the White House residence.
“The book ‘Fear’ is the most acute and penetrating portrait of a sitting president ever published during the first years of an administration,” says Jonathan Karp, president and publisher of Simon & Schuster.
“This is the inside story on President Trump as only Bob Woodward can tell it.”
Alice Mayhew, vice president and editorial director of the Simon & Schuster imprint, acquired world publishing rights to “Fear” in all formats. Woodward was represented by Robert B Barnett of Williams & Connolly.
The book will also be published by Simon & Schuster’s international companies in Australia, Canada, India, and the UK, and in audiobook by Simon & Schuster Audio.
Woodward, an associate editor at The Washington Post, where he has worked for 47 years, has shared in two Pulitzer Prizes, first for the Post’s coverage of the Watergate scandal with Carl Bernstein, and second in 2003 as the lead reporter for coverage of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
