摘要

Richard m. daley spentrn21 years as Chicago's mayor before announcing that he would not seek re-election. His father Richard J. Daley also spent 21 years in the same job but died there. Some thought the younger Daley would do the same until his surprising declaration. Together, the pair leave a mighty urban legacy. Richard J. was the archetypal machine pol, who ruled the ethnically fractious city with an iron fist from the 1950s through the '70s.
