In Battleground New Jersey , historian and Boardwalk Empire author Nelson Johnson chronicles reforms to the system through the stories of Arthur T. Vanderbilt--the first chief justice of the state's modern-era Supreme Court--and Frank Hague--former mayor of Jersey City. Although Vanderbilt and Hague clashed on matters of public policy and over the need to reform New Jersey's antiquated and corrupt court system, they were two of the most powerful politicians in twentieth-century America.
