Good book, but takes awhile to get goingBy AndrewFirst 1/4 or 1/3 of the book is disappointing. It rambles and seems to focus more on Irish culture than Tammany. It also doesn't provide a proper (or at least satisfying) account of the origins of the organization and Boss Tweed. We hear a lot about WHY Tammany and its methods came around, but not HOW.The latter 2/3 of the book is really good, though. It's very interesting if you are fascinated by NYC politics, party politics, the Progressive Era, and more. Very good read overall, I just wish the first portion had been more focused.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Book is very interesting. I grew up in NYC ...By Patricia ThompsonBook is very interesting. I grew up in NYC and many of the people in the book have schools and streets named after them. It was eye opening to see how their lives impacted the development of NYC. The other thing I found interesting is that discrimination has been around for ions and all people have experienced it in one form or another.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. It's easy to read and hard to put downBy Daniel C GoldbergA must-read for fans of Irish history and/or New York politics. It's easy to read and hard to put down. Lots of people will say this book is about politics mdash; and it is mdash; but it is also a nuanced study of people, reminding us that heroes and villains exist only in comic books and the men who ushered this country into the 20th century were far more complex, exhibiting both virtue and vice. A major, surprising new history of New York's most famous political machinemdash;Tammany Hallmdash;revealing, beyond the vice and corruption, a birthplace of progressive urban politics.For decades, history has considered Tammany Hall, New York's famous political machine, shorthand for the worst of urban politics: graft, crime, and patronage personified by notoriously corrupt characters. Infamous crooks like William "Boss" Tweed dominate traditional histories of Tammany, distorting our understanding of a critical chapter of American political history.In Machine Made, historian and New York City journalist Terry Golway convincingly dismantles these stereotypes; Tammany's corruption was real, but so was its heretofore forgotten role in protecting marginalized and maligned immigrants in desperate need of a political voice. Irish immigrants arriving in New York during the 19th century faced an unrelenting onslaught of hyperbolic, nativist propaganda. They were voiceless in a city that proved, time and again, that real power remained in the hands of the mercantile elite, not with a crush of ragged newcomers flooding its streets. Haunted by fresh memories of the horrific Irish potato famine in the old country, Irish immigrants had already learned an indelible lesson about the dire consequences of political helplessness. Tammany Hall emerged as a distinct force to support the city's Catholic newcomers, courting their votes while acting as a powerful intermediary between them and the Anglo-Saxon Protestant ruling class.In a city that had yet to develop the social services we now expect, Tammany often functioned as a rudimentary public welfare system and a champion of crucial social reforms benefiting its constituency, including workers' compensation, prohibitions against child labor, and public pensions for widows with children. Tammany figures also fought against attempts to limit immigration and to strip the poor of the only power they hadmdash;the vote. From BooklistRooted in Jeffersonian democracy and transformed by the massive Irish immigration of the mid- nineteenth century, Tammany Hall, New York Cityrsquo;s Democratic organization, became synonymous with machine politics. Golway joins the revisionists in emphasizing Tammanyrsquo;s constructive contributions and its consequent impact on modern politics. An expert in Irish-American history, Golway unsurprisingly sees the origins of this form of political organization in Irish anti-institutional activism. In overcoming and battling nativism in America, reaching out, albeit not selflessly, to new immigrant groups and, after the Triangle Shirtwaist tragedy of 1911, supporting progressive social programs both at the local level and legislatively, Tammany thrived well into the 1900s. After the strong leadership by ldquo;Silent Charlierdquo; Murphy came the ascendancy of governor and presidential candidate Al Smith. The organization became, through Senator Robert F. Wagner, a major factor in the New Deal and, later, American liberalism. Not ignoring instances of corruption large and small, from Boss Tweed to Jimmy Walker (Tammany coined the concept of ldquo;honest graftrdquo;), Golway makes his case for Tammanyrsquo;s impact eloquently. In doing so, he has provided an essential addition to the historical literature of New York and urban America. --Mark Levine ldquo;Golwayrsquo;s revisionist history chips away at Tammany Hallrsquo;s calcified reputation and reveals that the Democratic machine that produced Boss Tweed-era corruption was also a force for worthy reform.rdquo; - Amy Finnerty, The New York Times Book ldquo;Machine Made tells an important but forgotten story?of how American politics once worked for the poor and weak rather than, as today, only for the rich and powerful.rdquo; - Kerby A. Miller, author of Emigrants and Exilesldquo;Terry Golwayrsquo;s Machine Made delivers a refreshingly revisionist verdict on the Irish-dominated Democratic organization whose ring reverberated mightily in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and then faded into a faint echohellip; If Boss Tweed and Richard Croker remain the defining faces of Tammany, Mr. Golwayhellip; advances a breezy and convincing case that Al Smith, Senators Robert F. Wagner and Herbert Lehman, and their mentors, Tom Foley and Charles Francis Murphy, deserve distinguished pedestals in that pantheon, too.rdquo; - Sam Roberts, The New York Timesldquo;A work that knowledgeably readjusts Tammanyrsquo;s reputation from a nest of corruption to an important crusader for the poor and downtrodden.rdquo; - Kirkus sldquo;[A] valuable and enjoyable analysis describing how the political machine changed the role of government?for the better to millions of disenfranchised recent American arrivalshellip; [The] legacy Mr. Golway is so passionate about is undeniable. Tammany Hall, for all the many flaws of its leaders, helped create a welcoming environment for immigrants, making New York and the United States the beacon of hope for those seeking a better lifehellip; Now, thatrsquo;s a legacy worth remembering.rdquo; - Steven Fulop, The New York ObserverAbout the AuthorTerry Golway was a journalist for thirty years, writing for the New York Observer, the New York Times, and other venues. He holds a PhD in American history from Rutgers University and is currently the director of the Kean University Center for History, Politics, and Policy in New Jersey.

Carter Manny, a close associate of Murphy's, deserves our lasting thanks for his perception in recognizing the historical significance of Murphy's so often casually told stories and for his efforts to given them permanent form. It is an important addition to our collection because it brings to light many aspects of the practice of architecture in Chicago in the early years that only a privileged few could address. We share Carter's regret that we could not have had more of Murphy's recollections, but are indeed appreciative for what is here.

  • The Great Unwashed Public Baths in Urban America, 1840-1920
    Washiîi! The Great Unwashed Public Baths in Urban America, 1840-1920 a\TH5 FOR Marilyn Thornton Williams Washing "The Great Unwashed" examines the almost forgotten public bath movement of the nineteenth and early twentieth cen­ turies—its origins, its leaders and their motives, and its achievements. Marilyn Williams surveys the development of the American obsession with cleanliness in the nineteenth century and discusses the pub­ lic bath movement in the context of urban reform in New York, Baltimore, Philadel­ phia, Chicago, and Boston. During the nineteenth century, personal cleanliness had become a necessity, not only for social acceptability and public health, but as a symbol of middle-class sta­ tus, good character, and membership in the civic community. American reformers believed that public baths were an impor­ tant amenity that progressive cities should provide for their poorer citizens. The bur­ geoning of urban slums of Irish immi­ grants, the water cure craze and other health reforms that associated cleanliness with health, the threat of epidemics—es­ pecially cholera—all contributed to the growing demand for public baths. New waves of southern and eastern European immigrants, who reformers perceived as unclean and therefore unhealthy, and in­ creasing acceptance of the germ theory of disease in the 1880s added new impetus to the movement. During the Progressive Era, these fac­ tors coalesced and the public bath move­ ment achieved its peak of success. Between 1890 and 1915 more than forty cities constructed systems of public baths.

Downloaded from juh.sagepub.com at SAGE Publications on February 17, 2014 THE INFORMAL WORLD OF POLICE PATROL New York City in the Early Twentieth Century CHRISTOPHER THALE Columbia College Chicago Nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century foot patrolmen did not have friendly contact with all citizens on their beats. Police-citizen relations were sometimes hostile or simply anonymous. Beats embraced large, socially divided populations, which did not always agree on police priorities. This article explores street-level police-citizen relations in New York City in the early twentieth century using disciplinary records, police-oriented newspapers, autobiographies, and other sources. Police-citizen contacts were selective. Merchants, shopkeepers, watchmen, and janitors shared common interests with police, which were strengthened by exchange of goods, services, the use of space, and sympathy and conversation. Police became especially attentive to their concerns about crime and disorder.

  • THE POLITICIAN Al Smith Was Fundamentally A
    THE POLITICIAN Al Smith was fundamentally a politician; subordinate only to his faith and family, politics dominated his life. 1 Smith was, furthermore, a talented and shrewd politician, possessing a combination of natural gifts and acquired skills that made him a master at his trade. His experience in New York politics constituted an education that actuated his behavior in national politics, and his achievements testified to his political proficiency. Smith possessed qualities common among successful politicians. He had a superb memory for faces and facts, an engaging manner, and a public personality that was widely recognized as a valuable asset. “If everyone in New York State had a personal acquaintance with Al Smith,” one Republican said, “there would be no votes on the other side.” Will Rogers underscored this point when he asserted that Smith could enter the strongest Klan town in the country, meet with the Klansmen there, and by the end of the week be elected “Honorary Grand Kleagle Dragon.” Smith, moreover, recognized the need to keep political fences mended. He became aware early in his Assembly career how he was expected to serve his constituents: a favor, a private bill, or a discreet intercession for someone in difficulty. Realizing that the machine legislator was really but an assistant to his district leader and that the organization was his device for contact with his constituents, Smith appeared with his leader at the Hall every weekend to be available to the district’s people. He made sure also that they could always reach him in times of immediate need.
