W. Bush Bill Clinton George W. Bush and Barack Obama-became members of the world's most exclusive fraternity. In Team of Five Kate Andersen Brower goes beyond the White House to uncover what exactly comes after the presidency offering a glimpse into the complex relationships of these five former presidents and how each of these men views his place in a nation that has been upended by the Oval Office's current norm-breaking occupant President Donald Trump.With an empathetic yet critical eye and firsthand testimony from the Carters Donald Trump and the top aides friends and family members of the five former presidents Team of Five takes us inside the exclusive world of these powerful men and their families including the unlikely friendship between George W.
