About this title

Review

?This is a valuable book because of the methodology employed and because of the author's findings that you can't lick a ward boss, ' and that in spite of the tremendous changes in party fortunes and the defeat of individual politicians for public office, party organization, methods, and leadership remained practically unchanged during the seven years of the depression.?-American Academy of Political and Social Science.
