Description

Explore the rapid rise of one of America's most significant urban centers with Chicago: An Economic History. This text provides a deep look into how Chicago transformed from a small settlement in 1830 into the second-largest city in the nation by 1900. As the Midwest grew into a leading global urban area, Chicago played a central role in that development. This book covers the economic history of the Chicago metropolitan area from the 1820s through to the present day. It places the city within its larger Midwestern context and offers comparisons to other major Northern cities. By applying theories of the economics of location and various economic models, the author explains the factors that allowed Chicago to maintain its status as a major urban powerhouse through the early 20th century. This is an essential resource for students and readers interested in business and economic history.
