Alternate title:  Big Boy: Chris Christie's appetite for power. Description:  324 p. : ill. ; 23 cm. Notes:  Pre-publication title: Big Boy: Chris Christie's appetite for power. Summary:  "First elected in 2009, Christopher Christie is the 55th Governor of New Jersey. In this searing tell-all, former New Jersey State Assemblyman Louis Manzo recounts an extraordinary tale of political ruthlessness, corruption, and greed while also telling the story of how he was caught in the center of one of the most egregious political scandals in modern-day history: the Bid Rig III sting operation, masterminded by the then United States Attorney for the District of New Jersey and soon-to-be Governor Chris Christie. Manzo spent five years researching how prosecutors used the inquiry to profit themselves and aid Christie's 2009 gubernatorial bid. The blind ambitions of Christie and his staff centered on capturing a governorship and the patronage jobs that accompany it, then parlaying that office into a shot at the presidency. Manzo makes a convincing and disconcerting case for the governor as an unbridled and sinister political figure who made the most of a seriously flawed Department of Justice and overall judicial system to feed his megalomania and desire for power"--Provided by publisher.
