520    The Gambler King of Clark Street: Michael C. McDonald and 
       the Rise of Chicago's Democratic Machine tells the story 
       of a larger-than-life figure who fused Chicago's criminal 
       underworld with the city's political and commercial 
       spheres to create an urban machine built on graft, bribery,
       and intimidation. In this first ever biography of McDonald,
       author Richard C. Lindberg vividly paints the life of the 
       Democratic kingmaker against the wider backdrop of 
       nineteenth-century Chicago crime and politics. Twenty-five
       years before Al Capone's birth, Michael McDonald was born.
