section.

And this particular episode is with the legend himself, Robert Caro, the author of The Power Broker.

I hope you enjoy.

Volume 4, Passage of Power, appeared on our recent list of the best books of the 21st century so far.

Before all that, however, in September 1974, 50 years ago, he published the Power Broker,
