The Republic of Gupta: A Story of State Capture is a 2017 book by South African investigative journalist Pieter-Louis Myburgh.
It is an exposé of the many controversial business activities of the Gupta family from cricket to computers to newspapers and television.
The book explores their conflict with Public Protector Thuli Madonsela and with the Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan which led to his dismissal by Zuma.
The book also investigates the other close links between the Gupta family and others within South African politics and society.
Hosken writes that Myburgh "discloses their thirst for control and wealth through outrageous manipulation".
