Attention LBJ nerds: Robert Caro is posting book updates on Instagram.

Lit Hub's Caro enthusiast promises regular updates on the progress of Robert Caro's ongoing work on his series about Lyndon Johnson. On a Monday night, Caro shared some exciting news about his book five, the final installment in the series. In the past two years, Caro has completed sections on Medicaid and is still grappling with the Vietnam portion.
