Boss Platt And His New York Machine: A Study Of The Political Leadership Of Thomas C. Platt, Theodore Roosevelt And Others is a book written by Harold F. Gosnell. It is a comprehensive study of the political leadership of Thomas C. Platt, Theodore Roosevelt, and other prominent figures in New York politics during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book examines the rise of the political machine in New York, led by Boss Platt, and its impact on the state's political landscape. It also delves into the political careers of Platt and Roosevelt, their rivalry, and their contributions to the state's political history. The book offers insights into the workings of political machines, the role of patronage in politics, and the challenges faced by reformers trying to break the hold of entrenched political interests. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of New York politics, the development of political machines, and the evolution of American democracy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
