Richard Zacks

Appointed police commissioner of New York City in 1895, the young Theodore Roosevelt vowed to clean up a metropolis teeming with gambling, prostitution, and police corruption. Zacks, author of The pirate hunter, paints vivid scenes of Gilded Age mischief and shows Roosevelt doing battle with Tammany Hall. As his mission succeeded, however, TR became less popular.
