Robert Caro's book Working succeeds on so many levels: brilliant lessons on the art of researching and writing, a teaser for his great biographies, an endearing autobiography. A quick and delightful read. I can't recommend it highly enough. – fuente2022-05-14T15:11:28.000Z
This gift from @pepinosuave is the single best book on #journalism I’ve ever read — relentless research, deeply embedded reporting, and aggressively patient listening. Must read for anybody who calls themself a reporter. – fuente
