Description

This comprehensive economic history traces Chicago's transformation from a frontier settlement in the 1820s to America's second-largest city by 1900 and beyond. The book examines the Chicago metropolitan area's rise within its Midwestern context, comparing the city's development to other major North American urban centres. Using theories of location economics and established economic models, the author explains the forces that shaped Chicago's industrial growth, financial ascendancy, and regional dominance throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. Part of the Routledge Advances in Regional Economics, Science and Policy series, this work provides essential insights into how geographic, economic, and institutional factors drove one of the world's most significant urban transformations. Ideal for scholars, economists, and historians studying urban development and economic history.
