The Boss of Little Arcady by Harry Leon Wilson is a novel set in the small town of Little Arcady in the early 20th century. The story follows the life of a young man named Jack Barnett, who returns to his hometown after graduating from college. He soon becomes involved in the town's politics and finds himself running for mayor against the corrupt incumbent, Judge Pike. Along the way, Jack falls in love with the judge's daughter, Betty, and must navigate the complicated social dynamics of the town. Through his campaign, Jack seeks to bring about change and reform to Little Arcady, but he soon discovers that the forces of corruption and greed are deeply entrenched in the town's power structure. As the election draws near, Jack must decide how far he is willing to go to win and whether he is willing to compromise his principles in the process. The Boss of Little Arcady is a classic tale of small-town politics, love, and ambition, and offers a timeless commentary on the corrupting influence of power.1905.
