- Synopsis
- New Jersey's legal system was plagued with injustices from the time it was established through the mid-twentieth century. Nelson Johnson chronicles how the system was finally reformed through the dramatic stories of two very different men, Arthur T. Vanderbilt and Frank Hague, two of the most powerful American politicians of their time. Their battles eventually led to legal reform, transforming New Jersey's court system into one of the most highly regarded in the nation.
