| Synopsis: |

A Choice "Outstanding Academic Book""[A] masterful study of policy-making in Chicago." "Choice" "[A] major contribution to urban and political history. . . . [A]n excellent book." Jeffrey S. Adler, "American Historical Review" "[A]n enlightening trip. . . . Einhorn's foray helps make sense out of the transition from Jacksonian to Gilded Age politics on the local level. . . . [She] has staked out new ground that others would do well to explore." Arnold R. Hirsch, "American Journal of Legal History" "A well-documented and informative classic on urban politics." Daniel W. Kwong, "Law Books in Review"" |
