Cuomo's controversial book American Crisis: Leadership Lessons from the COVID-19 Pandemic, was released in October, just before New York's COVID-19 numbers spiked again and Cuomo sent the state back into lockdown. Cuomo was slammed for the book which was released in the midst of the pandemic and despite him being blamed for thousands of COVID deaths in nursing homes. Cuomo gave a third of that money to charity and left two thirds for his three daughters, giving them around $300,000 each. He gave them each more than $300,000 for their 'tireless' pandemic work. Crown released the Cuomo book but stopped promoting it when Cuomo was accused of sexual misconduct by multiple former staffers and women.
