The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore

The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore is a book written by Daily Prophet journalist Rita Skeeter about former Hogwarts head master Albus Dumbledore.

Written and published only four weeks after Dumbledore's death, it ran nine hundred pages and was released in 1997. It had some controversial, though partially true, statements about the Dumbledore family. The book was widley talked about, some praised Skeeter, such as Aunt Muriel, though others, such as Elphias Doge were furious about her bashing and occasionally untrue statements of the Dumbledore family.
