Make Me a City begins with a game of chess—and on the outcome of that game hinges the destiny of Chicago.

A collection of compelling characters, many with familiar names, witness the expansion of the city, both horizontally and vertically. Their voices deliver the many strands of this novel, which are woven together to create the amazing tapestry that is Chicago. The book weaves together fiction and non-fiction to deliver a fascinating history of Chicago, tracing its rise from a frontier settlement to an industrial colossus.
