Autorenporträt
George Washington Plunkitt (1842-1924) was an American politician from New York State. He served in both houses of the New York State Legislature and was a member of the Tammany Hall political machine in New York City. William L. Riordon (1861-1909) was a reporter for the New York Evening Post. His conversations with George Washington Plunkitt, which make up Plunkitt of Tammany Hall, were recorded over a half-dozen years at the turn of the 20th century.
