Summary: THE ESSENCE OF CHICAGO
Review: THE ESSENCE OF CHICAGO !
As a former resident of Chicago, I found this book to capture the real essence of the city. Not only did it show the usual tourist attractions, but it clearly illustrated the business and commerce culture of this great city. The photography was excellent - it really made the book. The authors apparently did a lot of research to get information about Chicago THEN. It was really informative.

Summary: A Fantastic Look at Chicago's Business District
Review: This is truly an enjoyable book with a good collection of old and new photographs that documents the Loop area. This is a "must-have" book for every library. Also, accompanying the photographs is a great collection of interesting text, many with little know facts about the business district. I lived in Chicago once and I can't wait to visit it again with my book.
