A review by writesdave
Boss: Richard J. Daley of Chicago by Mike Royko

challenging dark informative reflective sad fast-paced

4.5

Absolute takedown of Chicago’s political icon and his Machine. Too bad it didn’t make a damned bit of difference, and Chicago’s picture remains in the dictionary next to the word “corrupt.” Nonetheless, today’s journalists would do well to jettison their access journalism for Royko’s philosophy of coverage without fear or favor.
