Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history of the Tammany Hall political organization in New York City from its inception as a secret society in 1789 to its rise to power as the dominant political force in the city for over a century. The book examines the social, economic, and political conditions that gave rise to Tammany Hall, its role in New York City's political development, and its impact on the city's social and cultural fabric.
