The Boss and How He Came to Rule New York — Alfred Henry Lewis

Excerpt from The Boss and How He Came to Rule New York

To the cheer of ones still on the firing lines of Tam many effort, let me promise to say no more of them than belongs of necessity to the story of my own career. I aim towards the painting of no man's picture save my own. Also from first to last I will hold before the face of each old friend the shield of an alias and never for a moment in name or feature uncover him to the general eye.
