Book Synopsis The Pragmatist by : Joseph P. Viteritti
Book excerpt: The two main characters of Joseph P. Viteritti's The Pragmatist -- Bill de Blasio and New York City itself -- are used to tell the story of the rise, fall and rebirth of progressivism in America's major urban center, and in the process introduce us to the contributions and distractions of every mayor since La Guardia, demonstrating that the road to progress was never a direct journey.
