Definitely a "must" for anyone who enjoys The New York Times and/or New York City. It may be sacrilege to suggest, but I did think Arthur Gelb could have used a good editor -- the book could have been 100 pages shorter and just that much tighter. Having said that, it was great to hear Gelb's anecdotes about well-known "bylines" at the times, as well as his insider's account of all the stories the Times broke during his four decades on the paper.
