The House That Madigan Built

The Record Run of Illinois' Velvet Hammer

By: Ray Long

Michael Madigan rose from the Chicago machine to hold unprecedented power as Speaker of the Illinois House of Representatives. In his thirty-six years wielding the gavel, Madigan outlasted governors, passed or blocked legislation at will, and outmaneuvered virtually every attempt to limit his reach. Veteran reporter Ray Long draws on four decades of observing state government to provide the definitive political analysis of Michael Madigan. Secretive, intimidating, shrewd, power-hungry--Madigan mesmerized his admirers and often left his opponents too beaten down to oppose him. Long vividly recreates the battles that defined the Madigan era, from stunning James Thompson with a lightning-strike tax increase, to pressing for a pension overhaul that ultimately failed in the courts, to steering the House toward the Rod Blagojevich impeachment. Long also shines a light on the machinery that kept the Speaker in power. Head of a patronage army, Madigan ruthlessly used his influence and fundraising prowess to reward loyalists and aid his daughter’s electoral fortunes. At the same time, he reshaped bills to guarantee he and his Democratic troops shared in the partisan spoils of his legislative victories. Yet Madigan’s position as the state’s seemingly invulnerable power broker could not survive scandals among his close associates and the widespread belief that his time as Speaker had finally reached its end. Unsparing and authoritative, The House That Madigan Built is the page-turning account of one the most powerful politicians in Illinois history.

A Columbus State of Mind

Essays about a Native Son, His City, and Les Wexner's Big House

By: Ray Paprocki

Maybe were wrong, but it seems theres a shortage of books about Central Ohio by a native son with an unusual last name whos written for Columbus Monthly since 1985. In fact, theres only one book that fits that description: this one. Call it a collectors item. Yes, a book of Ray Paprockis humorous and insightful personal essays first published in Columbus Monthly. Read his contrarian view about the Ohio State football teams 2002 national championship, his open letter to Mayor Mike Coleman regarding downtown development (including a dramatic suggestion about City Center) and his tongue-in-cheek take on Les Wexners New Albany mansion. Paprocki also turns his pointed wit on himselfnote the stories about the flying-dog and the flapping car hood. And then theres that particularly unpleasant encounter with the Grumpy Man of Minerva Park.
