Read 'The Power Broker' by Robert Caro. It's the biography of Robert Moses, one of the most influential and powerful men to control New York State's government apparatus during the twentieth century. It's a study in administrative power, how to find it, grasp it, use it and keep it.
It's also a horrifying example of what the long-range effects can be where there is 'too much' power in one man's hands.
