Jerome Krase is Professor of Sociology at Brooklyn College of CUNY. Charles LaCerra is Assistant Professor of History at the College of Staten Island.
The only in-depth study I know of about Brooklyn politics. It depicts a major political club that had an impact on the politics of New York City and State way out of proportion to its size.
— Daniel C. Kramer, The College of Staten Island
I am very much impressed by the intimacy and care with which Krase and LaCerra penetrate and describe the intimacies of Brooklyn's Democratic Party organization....We need more such books.

In a delightful book about Brooklyn, 'Ethnicity and Machine Politics,' CUNY professors Jerome Krase and Charles LaCerra explode the myth that ethnic political succession in Kings County is a smooth or gentle affair.
— Errol Louis, New York Sun
A welcomed effort by two astute analysts conveying to a broad audience an in-depth description of the excruciating and exciting changes that are occurring before our eyes. A very significant contribution to the literature.
