The inside story of the four years when Donald Trump went to war with Washington, from the chaotic beginning to the violent finale, told by journalists Peter Baker of The New York Times and Susan Glasser of The New Yorker.
What The Reviewers Say
... the latest in what has become a procession of books about the Trump presidency, but there are reasons to think it arrives right on time.
... detail-rich.
... meticulously researched and beautifully written. Those who were in and around the West Wing talk and share documents. Baker and Glasser lay out receipts. They conducted more than 300 interviews. They met Trump at Mar-a-Lago..
... exquisitely timed. A well-paced and engagingly written narrative, The Divider shows off the best of big-resource journalism in the Trump era. Yet it also makes vivid some of the shortcomings of the industry that Trump repeatedly exploited.
