The Power broker by Robert A. Caro

Moses is an interesting and important figure in New York history, but Caro’s writing elevates him to an almost Machiavellian character. The sentences, pages, and chapters are beautifully written and are immensely gripping. This is both an academic study of a man. Caro has admitted that he wishes he made this book longer. His editors at the time thought nobody would read such a long book so they cut several chapters, including Moses’s battles with Jane Jacobs. Despite that, the book is great. For the battle with Jacobs, turn to the many other books and documentaries about her. She is worth your time.
