Book Reviews of Forgotten Chicago (Images of America: Illinois)

Book Review: Love this book!
Summary: 5 Stars



If you enjoy Chicago history, this is a great book.
The pictures are great. I wish we were able to frame some
of them. Chicago has changed a lot over the years. This is
a good and very well photographed reminder of the older days.
The history buff I gave it to, LOVES it!!

Summary of Forgotten Chicago (Images of America: Illinois)

Chicago has long been regarded as home to some of the world's most impressive architecture. Responding to the Great Fire of 1871, Chicagoans rebuilt the city, creating a radically new architectural style. Chicago continued to grow and evolve through the 20th century, but many of its architectural masterpieces have been lost, some to modernization, and others simply to the ravages of time. Forgotten Chicago preserves the unique story of many of Chicago's famed architectural wonders. Included are the old Northwestern Train station, the Coliseum, the Chicago Stadium, old Comiskey Park, and Soldier Field. Many of the smaller treasures of the city will also be found here, including some of Chicago's most famous diners.
