Robert Caro, a biographer of Robert Moses, and Lyndon Johnson (4 volumes so far) and Robert Gottlieb, an editor, have been working together for fifty years and this delightful documentary gives you a sense of that relationship. Caro is working on volume 5 now and it's a race against time but he will not be rushed and ruin the gift he has left us. Phil and I listened to MASTER OF THE SENATE on a trip to Cape Cod once and he held us spellbound. This is available now on PRIME for $5.99 and I highly recommend it. (Gottlieb has edited around 500 books beside Caro's. Both men are feisty and interesting.
