Working, Researching, Interviewing, Writing by Robert A. Caro

The book’s focus is on how Mr. Caro does his work. How he engages with people involved in the lives of his subjects. How researching the record and “turning every page” is a critical part of uncovering the truth. His candid description of his interviewing, researching and writing methods is a great instructional guide of every city planner. His process is highly productive and successful at challenging myths and half-truths. Issues and opportunities in cities and towns throughout America deserve the level of effort described by Mr. Caro. An inspirational read.
