Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a critique of the city's water board, a response to a growing mistrust of authority that erupted during the early 1900s, instigated by politicians and the public. The enquiry exposed financial discrepancies between the board and local businessmen, fueling resentment and leading to wider accusations of graft. The author explores the negative impact of this on honest, local officials. Despite their acquittal, the water board became targets of a smear campaign. The book argues that smear tactics will make it harder for the city of Lynn to attract quality candidates for future governance.
