Part memoir, part business playbook, this bestseller chronicles Donald Trump's 1980s real-estate rise while laying out his negotiating habits: leverage, timing, media savvy, and an appetite for big, complex deals. Through week-by-week vignettes and case studies (from Manhattan towers to Atlantic City casinos), Trump explains how he sizes up counterparts, manages risk, crafts narratives to influence perception, and pushes projects across the finish line-offering a snapshot of high-stakes dealmaking in New York's boom years.
