''THE UNGOVERNABLE CITY' would have been enriched by more patient and less politicized discussion of those questions. It could also have used a more generous acknowledgment of the hope Lindsay brought to minorities, the talent he drew to government, his passionate advocacy for America's cities. But on balance, this book is a provocative history of a remarkable time in New York City and of a promising, ultimately weak political leader."Cannato, Vincent J. is the author of 'Ungovernable City John Lindsay and His Struggle to Save New York', published 2002 under ISBN 9780465008445 and ISBN 0465008445.
