Former interim Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Donna Brazile will release a book described as "equal parts campaign thriller, memoir, and roadmap for the future," focusing on the 2016 election.
Brazile, who succeeded Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., as head of the DNC following the party's leaked email scandal, signed a deal for an unknown amount with Hachette to release "Hacks: The Inside Story of the Break-ins and Breakdowns that Put Donald Trump in the White House."
In a press release, the former chairwoman said, "I've been a Democrat all my life, but I'm an American first of all. At a moment when our democracy is in crisis, it's time to tell the truth about what went wrong in 2016. Our nation is under unprecedented assault, and if we don't get the facts out, it will happen again — and worse than you can imagine."
Publisher Mauro DiPreta added, "Donna's first person perspective is eye opening. She provides much-needed answers that shed a provocative and at times disturbing light on the historic 2016 election. Our hope is that Hacks will not only set the record straight but also provide a cautionary tale for future elections."
