In \u003cem\u003eTeam of Five\u003c\/em\u003e, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith 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, \u003cem\u003eTeam of Five\u003c\/em\u003e takes us inside the exclusive world of these powerful men and their families, including the unlikely friendship between George W.
