Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Nothing revolutionary about the concept -- large format book with pictures of Chicago and Chicagoans, fueled by memories and the photo albums of prominent people: Dick Biondi, Hugh Heffner, Clark Weber, etc.
Still. This one is really well done. A large, attractive format. Glossy stock. Great editorial eye. And it isn't a coffee table book. You can hold it comfortably without it hurting you.
And there's a picture of a couple of kids who were in my elementary school.
