Working (2019) Signed First Edition Reference
Working (Alfred A. Knopf, 2019) is Caro’s memoir of his research and writing methods — a slim, warm book that explains how he reported The Power Broker (moving his family to Robert Moses’s old community to understand it from inside) and the LBJ volumes (spending years in the Texas Hill Country, interviewing everyone who knew Johnson). The book reveals the obsessive dedication behind Caro’s work and functions as both craft manual and autobiography.
