‘The Power Broker’ Is Finally Getting a Digital Edition. What Took So Long?

Finally! That might actually help me back into this book, I can read so much more on ebooks, reading in bed with a partner is not convenient with a large book

I worship Caro and have read, in awe, all of his books, and dammit he needs to hurry up and finish the last one, but my god, media, give it a frickin’ REST with the incessant inviting him to Yet Again tell the story of how he wrote THE POWER BROKER. Caro should be chained to his typewriter until he finishes the final LBJ book. Rulez is rulez.

I just finished reading The Power Broker and, man, that was a heck of a book!

I feel like RM was the epitome of the "brilliant jerk".

It makes me wonder what things would be like in New York (and elsewhere) if he had built public transit they way he built roads.

All-in-all, a good book. I'd recommend it.

(I started it because of 99% Invisible, but then I just kept reading...)
