This is the first complete biography of Philadelphia¿s great political reformer, Richardson Dilworth (1898¿1974). He was district attorney, school board president, and the 91st mayor of Philadelphia from 1956 to 1962. The book gives his family history, his youth in Pittsburgh and New York City, his service in both world wars, his education at Yale, and his involvement with Philadelphia figures including Joseph Clark, Moses and Walter Annenberg, Albert M. Greenfield, Thacher Longstreth, and Bill Green, as well as Joseph McCarthy and John F. Kennedy.
Blue-Collar Conservatism examines the blue-collar, white supporters of Frank Rizzo—Philadelphia's police commissioner turned mayor—and shows how the intersection of law enforcement and urban politics created one of the least understood but most consequential political developments in recent American history.
