(CNN)First it was fear, now it's rage.

Following up on his 2018 best-selling book "Fear," legendary investigative journalist Bob Woodward's new book on President Donald Trump -- titled "Rage" -- will have stunning details about the President's behavior and decision making, according to sources familiar with the book.

Woodward, a two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, is known for his behind-the-scenes reporting and unprecedented access, but his second book on Trump promises to bring readers inside the Oval Office like never before. According to multiple sources, the book has explosive accounts of Trump's thoughts and actions on national security, the coronavirus pandemic, the economic collapse and the Black Lives Matter protests.

The book has extensive inside reporting on the coronavirus crisis from day one until the end of July. It will include new reporting from the White House on Trump's words, thoughts and decision-making about the virus including how Trump first reacted when he learned about it and what he said and did behind the scenes.

"Rage" is scheduled for release on September 15 and 1.3 million copies are being printed.

Jonathan Karp, CEO of Woodward's publisher Simon & Schuster, also published the tell-all bestsellers on Trump released earlier this year by former national security adviser John Bolton and Trump's niece Mary Trump. He told CNN, "'Rage' is the most important book Simon & Schuster will publish this year. Every voter should read it before November 3."

3. Woodward understands the immense value of the one-word book title

Right wingers capitalized on that beginning in the '90s. I remember reading accounts that they did research and found out that one-word titles with emphatic tone created far greater sales and word of mouth.

It's ridiculous how many authors try to squeeze in a dozen words in the title, followed by a sub header. It's like volunteering to blend and go away.

All the best reporters are determined to out his pathology and incompetence!
