Plunkett's book Plunkett of Tammany Hall is a very revealing look at the political world of the late 19th century. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in the history of the period. There are some free etexts of the book online, including at Project Gutenberg.

Wystan said:
LOC -- You (and Bain) have misspelled his last name -- should read "Plunkitt."

Arden said:
Thank you pennylrichardsca, Dendroica cerulea and Wystan for your comments. We will add more information about Plunkitt to the description and correct the spelling of his name.
