Summary: An anthology of essays discussing the history of Chicago
Review: Chicago Tribune senior correspondent Charles Madigan presents Global Chicago, an anthology of essays discussing the history of Chicago, and exploring its transformation into one of the most famous and important cities of the world. From its rebuilding from a devastating fire, to its evolution into a hub of corporate headquarters and international transportation, to its groundbreaking architecture, medley of cultures as expressed in its over 120 foreign language newspapers, and much more, Global Chicago is truly fantastic exploration into history, culture, pride, and visions of the future. A most enjoyable reading experience for anyone looking to better understand Windy City history.
