Caro

[Tom Beshear]

Sorry. Er, sorry? Not the last -- the new volume only takes LBJ up to assuming the presidency. Once again, Caro alters the plan and extends the project -- he's in his mid-70s now and I despair of him finishing. It's certainly one of the greatest projects of American biography ever.

  The fourth and last volume of Robert Caro's biography of Lyndon Johnson available May 1.  I'd put this -- the entire four volumes -- in the top ... five? -- not only of history, but literature in the last fifty years.
