Crooked : the roaring twenties tale of a corrupt attorney general, a crusading senator, and the birth of the American political scandal
Masters, Nathan2023
Book
Many tales from the Jazz Age reek of crime and corruption. But perhaps the era's greatest political fiasco, one that resulted in a nationwide scandal, a public reckoning at the Department of Justice, the rise of J. Edgar Hoover, and an Oscar-winning film-has long been lost to the annals of history. In 'Crooked', Nathan Masters restores this story of murderers, con artists, secret lovers, spies, bootleggers, and corrupt politicians to its full, page-turning glory.
