1903. Being the letters (nonpartisan) of Hon. William Bradley,
Ex-Governor and former veteran of practical politics, written to
his friend and protege Ned, who is still busy carving a career back
in the old state. Although the author was not well known in
political circles, he must have had some close associates who
provided him with a wealth of anecdotal material about Illinois
political affairs around the turn of the century. These humorous
and revealing stories of political machinations of the era spoof
both candidate and voter. Fictitious names have been substituted
for the principals, for example, Uncle Cal. Peavey as Governor
Altgeld and Mike Boylan as Clarence Darrow.
