Chicago: City on the Move

For close to 150 years, photographers have documented the construction of Chicago's public transportation system. They photographed the building of the city's famous ?L? lines and subway tunnels. And they photographed the streetcars that glided through city streets. For the first time, these photos in the Chicago Transit Authority archive are available in Chicago: City on the Move. The book shows Chicago in a new light. It presents a history of the city through mass transportation. But this is not a book of nostalgia. Although the photos are decades old, the subject is very much alive. Take a trip on the Blue Geese, the Green Hornets and the Old Reds. This is your chance to see Chicago as it was and better understand Chicago as it is. This is a book for people who love transportation, who love photography and who love the city on the move.Two-hundred and fifty pictures in duotone.Dybek, Stuart is the author of 'Chicago: City on the Move' with ISBN 9780978545031 and ISBN 0978545036.
