Rifling through the archives with Robert Caro

thcipriani

I spent a large chunk of 2024 reading _The Power Broker_ and all the Lyndon Johnson volumes. Caro recreates the entire world of every story in those books in so much detail that every biography or historical book I've read since has felt thin. I'm desperate for the fifth volume of the Johnson biography—I have no idea how he'll pull off such a sweeping final chapter, but I cannot wait to find out.

I really hope this donation means the lost chapter of ‘the power broker’ about Jane Jacobs resurfaces.
