Leatherette. Zustand: Very Good. The 1970 limited edition, in its navy-blue leathette, with bright gilt-design and titling. Even though this is considered a Presentation edition (with seemingly almost all copies signed or inscribed by Robert Moses), this copy, curiously, is not. However, still a sharp copy, except for the ink underlining at the first half dozen or so pages. Tight, clean and VG otherwise. Thick octavo, top-edge bright gilt, lacking the publisher's glassine dustjacket. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 23360

Hard Cover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Trade Edition. First trade edition, published the same year as the limited leather-bound edition. Edges smudges, jacket lightly soiled, top corner of a few pages lightly creased (previously dog-eared). 1970 Hard Cover. xxxvi, 952 pp. A rather self-congratulatory memoir by the famous urban planner of his time in public works. Moses was the subject of Robert Caro's Pulitzer Prize winning biography The Power Broker. From the jacket: "Robert Moses has dazzled the public for the last half a century. Fiercely dedicated and almost Napoleonic in his energies, he has transformed the face of this country as perhaps no other public servant has ever done. He has been the moving force behind thousands of parks and playgrounds, highways and parkways, beaches and outdoor recreation facilities in New York City and New York State. He has also served as a consultant to many major cities ranging from Canton, Ohio, to Caracas, Venezuela. In this engrossing volume, which contains much previously unpublished material, you will get an insider's look at some of the most ambitious undertakings of our time, including the Jones Beach State Park Project, the herculean St. Lawrence Seaway and Niagara Power Projects, and scores of other endeavors. Fascinating as a chronicle of modern environmental planning, this book contains an enormous amount of useful information and practical advice about administration, public works, conservation, public utilities, public housing, and other important subjects.
