Tolstoy, Tennyson…Trump? Well, he may not be a prize-winning author, but sure enough Donald Trump is no stranger to the art of the book. Critics call them self-promotional and self-aggrandizing, but when have critics ever stood in the way of Donald Trump? Indeed, book after book that he churns out has proven to be a hit with consumers, topping best-seller lists around the nation.

In his first, this real estate mogul explores the subject he seems to love most – himself. “The Art of the Deal” is an autobiography that attempts to answer the question people the world-over have been asking him for years, “How did you become so successful?” Today, it has become one of the most successful business best-sellers of all time. It remained on the New York Times best-sellers list for numerous weeks and has sold over three million copies since its initial release.

The second one he wrote is called “Surviving at the Top,” and serves as a sequel to his first book. Again a New York Times best-seller, this book takes a look at how he has managed to stay at the top of his game over the years despite bankruptcy, divorce and being under the critical eye of the public. It was followed by his third, called “The Art of the Comeback.” This look at his rebound from near financial collapse received similar commercial success.

In 2000, Donald Trump published his fourth book, “The America We Deserve.” Shifting his focus away from the world of business, this book is Donald Trump’s take on the state of politics in the United States. He examines important social and economic problems plaguing the nation, shares his vision of the future, and – in typical Trump style - isn’t afraid to place blame where he sees fit.

In his fifth, “How To Get Rich: Big Deals from the Star of The Apprentice,” he returns to a topic he knows best – how to achieve success. From advising readers to “screw enemies back,” to poking fun at himself (“No animals have been harmed in the creation of my hairstyle”), the popularity of this book again landed him on best-seller lists across the country.

In addition to becoming a wildly popular television show host and an admired mogul in the world of real estate, Trump could now also be considered an accomplished author. He continued his foray into the literary world with the 2004 release of “The Way to the Top: The Best Business Advice I Ever Received” and “Think Like a Billionaire: Everything You Need to Know About Success, Real Estate, and Life”, 2005’s “Trump: The Best Golf Advice I Ever Received,” and the most recent “Why We Want You to be Rich: Two Men – One Message.”

In his latest book, Donald Trump claims “My policy is to learn from the past, focus on the present, and dream about the future.” Over the years, millions of people have purchased a book or five of Donald Trump’s in order to gain access to his business wisdom and advice, learning from his past to realize their own dreams.
