Excerpt from New York in the Elegant Eighties Nothing like the charm and fascination of New York in those days, exists at present. It seems like a different world. The present New Yorker knows nothing about the saner, the quieter and more dignified city of forty years ago. What happened to Rip Van Winkle upon his return to the village of Falling Waters after his sleep of twenty years would be tame in comparison with what a New Yorker of the Eighties would experience suddenly returning to the New York of Today.

The importance of Chicago in American culture has made the city's place in the American imagination a crucial topic for literary scholars and cultural historians. While databases of bibliographical information on Chicago-centered fiction are available, they are of little use to scholars researching works written before the 1980s. In The Chicago of Fiction: A Resource Guide, James A. Kaser provides detailed synopses for more than 1,200 works of fiction significantly set in Chicago and published between 1852 and 1980. The synopses include plot summaries, names of major characters, and an indication of physical settings. An appendix provides bibliographical information for works dating from 1981 well into the 21st century, while a biographical section provides basic information about the authors, some of whom are obscure and would be difficult to find in other sources. Written to assist researchers in locating works of fiction for analysis, the plot summaries highlight ways in which the works touch on major aspects of social history and cultural studies (i.e., class, ethnicity, gender, immigrant experience, and race). The book is also a useful reader advisory tool for librarians and readers who want to identify materials for leisure reading, particularly since genre, juvenile, and young adult fiction, as well as literary fiction, are included.

Many of Chicago's greatest or most unusual restaurants are "no longer taking reservations," but they're definitely not forgotten. From steakhouses to delis, these dining destinations attracted movie stars, fed the hungry, launched nationwide trends and created a smorgasbord of culinary choices. Stretching across almost two centuries of memorable service and adventurous menus, this book revisits the institutions entrusted with the city's special occasions. Noted author Greg Borzo dishes out course after course of fondly remembered fare, from Maxim's to Charlie Trotter's and Trader Vic's to the Blackhawk.

Excerpt from A History of the Chicago Club In different ways and through various disadvantages our attention has been called to the losses suffered by the Club in the total destruction of its records by the fire of 1871, and the partial destruction of the same by fire, November 3, 1887, and to the total absence of any system for the preservation of our current documentary history. The Club has, for example, no file of its Annual Reports. We have not even copies of any of our Club books as issued from time to time. We have, therefore, invited Mr. Edward T. Blair to undertake the task of preparing and publishing for us a history of our Club from its very beginning, and he has kindly accepted the responsibility. Such a work will be of the greatest inter- est to us all, and will be an important contribution to the history of Chicago.
