| Customer Reviews:
Very interesting study October 15, 2006 Thought-provoking and insightful text and just enough of it to give you all the info you need to know about the I&M canal's history. The star of the book is Ranney's photos, which are excellent. All in black and white, which some photographers prefer. I would much rather have had color, but these B&W compositions are awesome anyway! After you've visited a few of the I&M Canal sites, it really makes the photos and history presented in this book come alive. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the history of this feature that made the City of Chicago into the major midwestern city that it is.
