520 | 8 | _aFor more than a century, Chicago's skyline has included some of the world's most distinctive and inspiring buildings. This history of the Windy City's skyscrapers begins in the key period of reconstruction after the Great Fire of 1871 and concludes in 1934 with the onset of the Great Depression, which brought architectural progress to a standstill. Leslie reveals the daily struggles, technical breakthroughs, and negotiations that produced these magnificent buildings. | |
