A rousing classic with a great supporting cast and a lovely story of political corruption, and some great montages of old school printing presses and late 30s Washington to boot.
This historical treatise has a lot of notoriety but I found it unnecessarily dense, and ultimately flawed, in that its focus on states and state power ignores a related discussion of capitalist power, such that altho there is a useful perspective to glean here about how a drive for social legibility can transform a society, I wouldn't recommend the book overall.
