This collection of essays provides a quite readable, descriptive overview of electoral politics in Boston over the last 300 years. The strongest essays are those that illustrate the crucial periods (especially the Jacksonian and Progressive eras) when official power shifted from one group of elites to another. ... Libraries with urban history collections should consider this convenient volume for use by upper-level undergraduates.-Choice
