Read it:

New York and the Texas Hill Country, 1935 to 2023. Robert Caro learned on a Long Island newspaper that the way to find out what happened is to turn every page of the file, and then spent sixty years proving how expensive that is. He sold his house to finish one book, moved to a country he did not understand in order to see it, read his way through a presidential library one box at a time, and published five volumes in fifty years while a sixth stayed unfinished. Here are the arrangements that made it possible: the advances, the rent, the wife who was the whole research staff, the editor who fought him over semicolons, and the outline pinned to a wall before a word was written. Covers Robert Caro, Ina Caro, and Robert Gottlieb.
