Now that Donald Trump is braying at all of America on his own reality TV show, here is the paper reprint of an unauthorized biography of the controversial New York developer, who prefers to
control whatever buzz is generated about him. The author, an investment analyst as well as a writer, interviewed family members and business associates but did not receive the cooperation of
the man himself. The work, competently if not sparklingly written, takes readers through 1987 and a prediction that "Donald Trump will endure" QED these 17 years later. Annotation ©2004 Book
