In the first post-9/11 account of the career of the man who established himself as "America's Mayor" in the dark days after America was attacked, Fred Siegel examines Rudy Giuliani's successes in New York and how his eight years in office prepared him to rise to the occasion. The Prince of the City is at once a fascinating character study, a history of New York over the last forty years, and a classic inquiry into the issue of how cities thrive or die.

While generally very supportive of Giuliani, his self-promoting and self-absorbed side, and his enormous ego do come out in the book. There's not much here to convince you that being a good mayor make him a good Presidential candidate, and the 2008 presidential primary results reflected, but it's a good description of leadership can impact how cities thrive or die.
