This popped up in my memories today (from three years ago).  Little did I anticipate that reading this brilliant book would be the start of a new career?

A fantastic and complex storyline that keeps you turning the pages right through the night.

Looking forward to November when I’ll have time to relax and read the latest Bob Woodward.

Fear: Trump in the White House
THE INSIDE STORY ON PRESIDENT TRUMP, AS ONLY BOB WOODWARD CAN TELL IT.

With authoritative reporting honed through eight presidencies from Nixon to Obama, author Bob Woodward reveals in unprecedented detail the harrowing life inside President Donald Trump’s White House and precisely how he makes decisions on major foreign and domestic policies. Woodward draws from hundreds of hours of interviews with firsthand sources, meeting notes, personal diaries, files and documents. The focus is on the explosive debates and the decision-making in the Oval Office, the Situation Room, Air Force One and the White House residence.

Fear is the most intimate portrait of a sitting president ever published during the president’s first years in office.”
