I found some really interesting information in this book, but it felt a little too scholarly for me so I had a hard time getting through it.

The author's painstaking research and attention to detail is obvious in the writing of this book. There were many facts that I only discovered after reading this!

I have always been fascinated with Chicago, so I really wanted to read this book. I hoped for a good read and recieved one. Very infomrative and well written. Housing is in the fore front of this book. iwas amazing to read about the family of Lorraine Hansberry. The author also touches on other subjects which only adds to this wonderful read. Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for the ARC of this book. Although I received the book in this manner, it did not affect my opinion of this book nor my review.
