In this lively behind-the-scenes account, former mayor Nelson Wolff focuses on four major developments — the San Antonio Spurs’ AT&T Arena, Toyota, the PGA Village, and the River Walk expansion — that transformed the city. This intriguing, highly readable journey through the contemporary life of one American city offers hope to all cities striving to recreate themselves.
