Richard Wolffe Books in Order

Journalists John Authers and Richard Wolffe investigate the international battle to recover assets looted from Holocaust victims. Lawsuits, corporate negotiations, and political pressure expose conflicts between financial compensation, moral responsibility, and the needs of survivors.

Drawing on interviews and close access to Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign, Wolffe examines his path to the presidency. Campaign decisions, personal history, and relationships with advisers reveal how an initially unlikely candidate built a winning political organization.

Wolffe follows Barack Obama and his senior advisers through an early period of crisis in the White House. Struggles over health-care reform, the economy, and national security reveal how the administration responds to political setbacks and pressure from competing demands.

This short follow-up examines the Obama administration’s response to the 2010 midterm defeat. Wolffe reports on personnel changes, legislative bargaining, foreign-policy disputes, and campaign planning as the White House tries to regain political momentum.

After Hurricane Maria, chef José Andrés and his collaborators organize kitchens across Puerto Rico to feed residents cut off from basic supplies. Their account follows the practical improvisation, bureaucracy, and volunteer effort behind a rapidly expanding relief operation.

José Andrés and Richard Wolffe present Spanish tapas for American home kitchens. The cookbook combines small-dish recipes with guidance on ingredients, drawing on Mediterranean traditions and Andrés's experience translating Spanish cooking to ingredients available in the United States.
