Ah, Chicago!
Born here. Grew up here. Fascinated by Chicago's history, have a whole collection of books old and new about what was and what is and what should've been left alone.

My Kind of Town
Behold she stands, beside her inland sea. Sweet Home Chicago. Hey! Hey! Holy Cow! Let's Play Three Today!
Welcome one and all to the city of the Wild Onions.
From Mark Beaubien's tavern to Fort Dearborn to the Lindberg Beacon to Sears Tower and beyond. Chicago never stops growing. Through devastating tragedies like the Great Fire of 1871, the Eastland, The Iroquois Theater, Chicago somehow grows stronger to take her place among the great cities of the world.
