{"product_id":"dapper-dan-patrick-s-halley-9781511542463","title":"Dapper Dan: America's Most Corrupt Politician","description":"He was Charles Ponzi's attorney, and bilked the world's most famous con-man for nearly $300,000. He had a get out of jail arrangement with three District Attorneys whereby any case, up to and including murder, could be dismissed for a fee. He hoodwinked the most powerful Hollywood moguls in a blackmail scheme worthy of its own motion picture. He sold a pardon to one of the most notorious gangsters in American history. He was Daniel H. Coakley, \"Dapper Dan\" to his many adversaries, and he was without a doubt, America's most corrupt politician. This is his story, and a blow by blow look at old time Boston politics, from the smoky back rooms to the torchlight rallies. The true \"last hurrah\" of a bygone era of politics as a contact sport.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Patrick S.
