Chicago, The Second City

by A.J. Liebling

  • CULTURAL PORTRAIT
  • 2004
  • PAPER
  • 160 PAGES

A witty, wonderfully entertaining portrait of the city by the New Yorker writer who (to his misfortune and amusement) lived in Chicago for a year in 1952. His reports about life in the city, which originally appeared in the magazine, unleashed a storm of protest, which Liebling gleefully addresses in his forward to the book. With seven drawings by Saul Steinberg.  (USM81, $17.95)
