"Chicago is possibly the most important American city for experiencing important architectural masterpieces. There are numerous ways to learn about its architectural heritage, from museums to curated walking and driving tours and even a boat tour. While the basic factual histories of Chicago's landmarks are fairly well known, there are additional layers of history--often with dramatic human interest angles--that don't always get included in the "official" tours. Tom Miller tells the story of Chicago's rich architectural and social history building by building.

He excels at uncovering the dramas that have unfolded within the architecture and detailing them to tell an engaging and largely unknown side of Chicago's history"--Publisher's description.
