From noted New York Times bestselling Reagan biographer, and according to President Donald J. Trump  "highly respected Presidential Historian," comes Craig Shirley's UPHEAVAL : The Inside Account of Donald J. Trump’s Remarkable Journey to Victory and Return to Power to Save America Much like Shirley’s bestselling Ronald Reagan campaign books, UPHEAVAL  is an insiders’ look at the 2024 Donald Trump for President campaign. With unlimited access to campaign staff, polling data, strategy meetings, and the candidate, follow Shirley inside the campaign from January of 2024, day-by-day, month-by-month, to the end, election day and victory in November.  According to Shirley, Donald Trump’s past and present history is badly, and in some cases deliberately, misunderstood by the Establishment writers and scribes. Shirley sees Trump as an important transitional figure of history: America is no longer a nation of Republicans versus Democrats or even liberals versus conservatives, although there is some overlap; America is transitioning into a nation of Establishment versus Anti-Establishment, and much of this transition is due to Donald Trump. The campaign of 2024 proved this fact. UPHEAVAL  is an exciting, visceral and intellectual exploration of the how’s and whys of Donald Trump and his millions of followers; you will learn of President Donald J. Trump’s evolution of thought into the Anti-Establishment populist leader he is today. And about how a Presidential campaign operates, the inner workings, how decisions are made and why one loses, or in the case of President Trump, wins. Praise for Last Act: The Final Years and Emerging Legacy of Ronald Reagan by Craig Shirley "In this affectionate and often moving book, Craig Shirley has given us a remarkable account of Ronald Reagan's 'long goodbye, ' chronicling the final years of an American original who bent history in the service of freedom. This is an invaluable book about an invaluable man." --Jon Meacham, Pulitzer Prize winning bestselling author "Ronald Reagan may have had a Last Act in this life, but his principles are timeless. Craig Shirley reveals new information about Reagan's last days on earth in a deeply moving book that will bring tears to your eyes, strengthen your political resolve and inspire you to build on his legacy." --Cal Thomas, syndicated columnist "As we consider the next Reagan, here is the last Reagan, whose legacy must serve as a roadmap for the next American comeback." --Monica Crowley, Ph.D., Fox News political and foreign affairs analyst & Washington Times editor and columnist "Craig Shirley is a walking encyclopedia on all things Ronald Reagan. His latest, Last Act , delves into Reagan's post-presidential life with verve and insight, breaking plenty of new ground. The story of Reagan's battling the curse of Alzheimer's disease is utterly riveting. Highly recommended!" --Doug Brinkley, editor of The Reagan Diaries "With this book, Craig Shirley cements his place as the premier Reagan biographer. As revealing as his earlier volumes on Reagan were, this one is especially fascinating, chock full of new revelations and captivating observations about the former president's twilight years." --Dr. Larry J. Sabato, founder and director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia; author of The Kennedy Half Century "Craig Shirley's Last Act is a worthy successor to his earlier, fine accounts of Ronald Reagan's life and times. The book offers striking insights into Reagan the man--and also into America the country he so loved." --William Kristol, editor, Weekly Standard "Through never-before revealed interviews and expert analysis, Last Act by Craig Shirley pulls back the curtain on the life, last days, and legacy of Ronald Reagan--an exceptional president who believed in American exceptionalism above all else. Important. Essential. Bravo." --Jane Hampton Cook, author of American Phoenix "In the past, Craig Shirley meticulously documented Reagan's pre-presidential years; now, he meticulously documents Reagan's post-presidential years. His enlightening concept is punctuated by his usual exhaustive research and diligence in interviewing so many of the people who knew Ronald Reagan. And beyond the research is simply a touching story of a great man's final days. Last Act is a look at Ronald Reagan that is well worth your time." --Dr. Paul Kengor, professor of political science at Grove City College "Ronald Reagan's story is so rich and resonant―so profoundly American―that it can only be told, in its full range and complexity, by a biographer of extraordinary dedication to subject and craft. LBJ had Robert Caro; and Ronald Reagan has Craig Shirley. In Last Act , Shirley brings us the final years of a twentieth-century icon, issuing a challenge not just to other Reagan biographers but to the discipline of biography itself." --James Rosen, Fox News Chief Washington Correspondent and author of The Cheney Tapes "Stunning insi
