This text presents a character study of one of America's most charismatic public figures, a history of New York over the years, & an inquiry into the issue of how cities thrive or die. It concludes with a look at how Guiliani's successor, Mayor Michael Bloomberg, has handled his legacy & at what lies in Guiliani's political future.
