Constructing Chicago
Daniel Bluestone
Winner of two prizes, this book combines architectural history with cultural analysis in a look at the creation of the parks, churches, skyscrapers and civic buildings of Chicago. The author finds that 19th-century Chicago was influenced as much by moral and cultural aspirations as by commerce.
