Overview

Peril is a non-fiction book by American journalists Bob Woodward and Robert Costa about the outgoing Trump Administration, as well as the presidential transition and early presidency of Joe Biden. The book was published on September 21, 2021, by Simon & Schuster. Considered the culmination of Woodward's reporting on Donald Trump, Peril takes its title from an excerpt of Biden's inaugural address. In the speech, Biden proclaimed that Americans "will press forward with speed and urgency, for we have much to do in this winter of peril and possibility." This contrasts with Woodward's previous books about the Trump administration, Fear and Rage, which took their titles from Trump's comments from a March 2016 interview conducted by Woodward and Costa. Background Following the publication of Woodward's previous two Trump books, Fear and Rage, Peril acts as the final installment in Woodward's Donald Trump trilogy. Longtime Washington Post national political reporter and Washington Week host Robert Costa serves as the co-author of Peril. Having previously collaborated with Woodward in interviews with Donald Trump, Costa has described Woodward as a mentor. The majority of the book was written as an exposé during the final months of Trump's presidency, detailing the administration's response to COVID-19, attempts to overturn the 2020 United States presidential election, and efforts to delay the presidential transition of Joe Biden.
