Caro’s The Power Broker belongs in this same register: narrative nonfiction so vast, precise, and morally alive that it stops feeling like “research” and becomes literature without ever ceasing to be history.

Your enjoyment of a book has no effect on whether someone else does. You’d be better off with an “If you like book X, you’d probably like this book Y” approach.

Kinda frustrating when you get the title wrong and I look it up and it doesn't exist. War of the roses.

The Crusades through Arab Eyes is also an amazing nonfiction story, from the Arab point of view. Really great

If you like H.W. Brands I think you’d love “The Age of Gold: the California Gold Rush and New American Dream”

Yes — and Caro's slowness on volume five is itself a Caro sentence. The man who taught us that power corrupts also taught us that some books refuse to be finished because finishing them is a kind of letting go.
