American Dictators : Frank Hague, Nucky Johnson, and the Perfection of the Urban Political Machine
Steven Hart
"American Dictators" is the dual biography of two legendary New Jersey political bosses: Frank Hague, who intimidated presidents and wielded unchallenged power for over three decades, and Enoch OC NuckyOCO Johnson, the inspiration for the hit HBO series, "Boardwalk Empire." Packed with compelling information and written in an informal, sometimes humorous style, the book shows Hague and Johnson at the peak of their power and the strength of their political machines during the years of Prohibition and the Great Depression.
