Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This historical inquiry into municipal corruption in 19th-century New York City proclaims the Tammany Hall machine as the primary instrument by which corrupt political figures and their criminal associates stole millions of dollars from the public till. The author's focus is the econo…mic plundering of the city and its citizenry that occurred as local leaders became corrupt during this time of rapid industrial and societal change, a phenomenon the author suggests is not unique to 19th-century New York City. Parallels between the political bosses of the gilded age and their modern-day counterparts are clearly evident in this fascinating and well-researched historical account. Through insightful research and compelling prose, the author traces the origins of political corruption and explores the social and economic consequences that flowed from it. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
