Political Corruption in America: An Encyclopedia of Scandals, Power, and Greed

I reviewed material relating to the Swartwout-Hoyt scandal and found it full of errors. The book says Swartwout stole $2.25 million, but the audit showed $1.25 million, and later studies have shown that it was less than $400,000. The defalcation surfaced in 1838, not 1841. The bibliography proves the 1841 error citing an 1839 Congressional study. Many other errors and omissions for the Swartwout-Hoyt entry. Such an expensive book owes it to readers to be accurate.
