A history of men and women of the Second City

A good buy and great read. Gives one the back-story of men and women during a historical period that shows the turmoil and corruption of long ago. Worth the money.

History, Albeit Infamous

Karen Abbott has written a lively rendition about the infamous Levee district of Chicago at the turn of the 20th century.

Riveting true story, as compelling as a novel

I've been completely side-swiped for days by Karen Abbott's riveting true story of the infamous Everleigh Club brothel that operated in Chicago from 1900 to 1911. Sin in the Second City reads like a novel. I had to keep reminding myself it's absolutely true. It's just so absorbing, it's easy to forget you're not reading fiction. Sisters Ada and Minna "Everleigh" (a name they assumed) were raised in privilege in a wealthy...
