The author, an authentic political pro, strips away the glamour from the Big Boys. Here they are, as the voters never see them. The powerful campaign manager who shoots heroin; the stentorian, floppy-hatted candidate who sells out her own party; the fun-loving mayor, the billionaire governor, and their mutual hate; the Democratic candidate who bumbles into a scheme aimed at outslicking the wily old boss of the Progressive Party; the big-city political reporters on the take.
