The Gentleman From New York: Daniel Patrick Moynihan: A Biography
A well written bio of an interesting and consequential figure in American politics. Hodgson's treatment might be a bit adulatory, but the facts of Moynihan's life speak eloquently for themselves. To liberals, he often seemed to be a conservative, and to conservatives a liberal. He was, in fact, a moderate Democrat with an original mind and an independent streak. No one on the scene today seems to have his ability to get to the gist of an issue and then explicate it robustly. And that's a shame.
