Bentoff's engaging book breezes through 100 years of the Public Policy Forum

In an age when it seems everyone right down to the mailman and the grocer is a political partisan, it's refreshing to see a group like Milwaukee's Public Policy Forum celebrating a century of non-partisan effort to improve the efficiency of local government. Local writer Jeff Bentoff tells the story of the PPF and its roots in the national efficiency movement in his extremely readable new book, "Just the Facts: The 100-Year History of Milwaukee's Public Policy Forum."
