    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

It has colorful politicians — Boss Tweed and Tammany Hall; it has the robber barons (or, if you prefer, industrial statesmen) Cornelius Vanderbilt, John D. Rockefeller, and Andrew Carnegie; it has reformers Jacob Riis and Theodore Roosevelt; it has social critics Frank Norris (The Octopus) and Upton Sinclair (The Jungle); it has its muckraking journalists, Lincoln Steffens and Ida Tarbell; it has the Populist Party making its heroic stand
