The Washington Post is publishing a book about Donald Trump's presidential election, publishing house Scribner announced on Monday.

The book will be co-authored by investigative political reporter Michael Kranish and senior editor Marc Fisher, while pulling on reporting from dozens of Washington Post journalists. The project will be guided by Post Editor-in-Chief Martin Baron. Scribner editor-in-chief Colin Harrison will edit the book.

“Donald Trump is a presidential candidate unlike any we’ve ever seen before,” Baron said in a statement. “His candidacy and his positions have defied all conventions and upended the political landscape. Given that he could ascend to the most powerful position in the world, Trump’s life and career deserve to be explored in the greatest depth. That’s what we intend to do, with a huge investment of reportorial and editing resources and with a staff that consistently has led the field in covering his volatile candidacy.”

The book will be out on Aug. 23.
