Best Books About Chicago

Chicago is a diverse and interesting city, and the books written about it are just as fascinating. From travel guides on seeing Chicago's most exciting or off the beaten path attractions, to mystery novels set against the skyline of the Windy City, to devoted narratives of Chicagoans' love for their often loosing sports teams, much has been written to interest both city residents, former Chicagoans, and others who are just interested in reading about Chicago culture.  These books were hand-selected by me and are some of the best books written about Chicago sports, politics, history, food and more!
