“The Division of Light and Power, like Robert Caro’s The Power Broker: Robert Moses and the Fall of New York, is a gripping, moving and lucidly written account of the hidden mechanisms of corporate power in the United States and what happens when these corporate interests are challenged. It is essential reading, especially as we face an intensified corporate assault, done in the name of fiscal necessity, to seize total control of all public assets. As Dennis Kucinich warns, this assault is more than the seizure of public assets for private gain. These corporate forces, which function as a shadow government in Washington and cities across the country, now threaten to extinguish our anemic democracy. The Division of Light and Power is destined to become a classic text for those who seek to understand what took place to the United States in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.“

“This is a Rocky story about a kid from the wrong side of the tracks who, as a young mayor, took on the power structure of one of America’s most corrupt cities and won the battle.”
