Trump is again dominating the news cycle, and journalists with marquee bylines are knocking out book proposals

As the 2024 election takes shape, journalists with marquee bylines are knocking out book proposals.

Bob Woodward , Bob Costa , Jonathan Karl , Alex Isenstadt and Meridith McGraw are writing books on the former president.

While there’s clearly still a market for Trump books, it's a different moment; you’re likely not selling a Trump book today by promising a few exclusive interviews.

Joshua Green , who wrote the best-selling Devil's Bargain about Steve Bannon and Trump in 2017 , has now turned his eye to the populist left with The Rebels, which focuses on the uprising inside the Democratic Party led by Elizabeth Warren , Bernie Sanders , and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez .

The less cynical hope is that these books serve a greater, historical purpose.
