Chicagoland: City and Suburbs in the Railroad Age (Historical Studies of Urban America) (Updated Edition) by Ann Durkin Keating Paperback, 296 Pages, Published 2005 ISBN-10: 0-226-42882-6 / 0226428826 ISBN-13: 978-0-226-42882-6 / 9780226428826 Formed by images of crowded city streets and towering skyscrapers, our understanding of nineteenth-century Chicago completely neglects the fact that the city itself was only the center of a web of neighborhoods, farm communities, and industrial towns - many connected to the city by the railroad.
