With revealing, never-before-told stories, Fred C. Trump III, nephew of President Donald Trump, breaks his decades-long silence in this revealing memoir and sheds a whole new light on the family name.
For the record…Fred Trump never asked for any of this. The divisive politics. The endless headlines. A hijacked last name. The heat-seeking uncle, rising from real estate scion to gossip column fixture to The Apprentice host to President of the United States. Fred just wanted a happy life and a satisfying career. But a fight for his son’s health and safety forced him onto a center stage that he had never wanted. And now, at a crucial point for our nation, he is stepping forward again.
In All in the Family, Fred delves into his journey to become a “different kind of Trump,” detailing his passionate battle to protect his wife and children from forces inside and outside the family. From the Trump house to the White House, Fred comes to terms with his own complex legacy and faces some demons head-on. It’s a story of power, love, money, cruelty, and the unshakable bonds of family, played out underneath a glaring media spotlight.
All in the Family is the inside story, as it’s never been told before.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this somber debut memoir, Trump, the nephew of former president and current Republican nominee Donald Trump, offers a behind-the-scenes look at the Trump family tree—and the cold machinations that left him and his sister Mary, author of Too Much and Never Enough, largely disinherited. Trump's story is a far cry from the narrative often put forward by his famous uncle; the book is packed with juicy details of the family's dysfunction, including the almost casual cruelty of his grandfather, and the struggles of his father, Fred Jr., who spurned the family business to become a pilot and succumbed to alcoholism at age 42. The most intense chapters deal with a financially floundering Donald Trump's heartless scheme to cheat Trump and his sister out their father's inheritance, sparking a brutal legal battle that saw the family cut off Trump's health insurance shortly after the arrival of his third son, William, who was born with special needs and required significant (and expensive) medical care. Trump remains admirably forbearing, resisting insults and attacks, instead letting actions speak loudest in his workmanlike prose. It's a vivid account of a famous family's dynastic power plays and the collateral damage left in their wake.
