Publisher's Synopsis
Now the Chicago Map Society, in collaboration with the Newberry Library, has compiled a new edition of one of Michaels's 1905 guides showing the route from Chicago to Lake Geneva, a resort town in southern Wisconsin. This new edition reproduces the entire guide, along with brief explanations and new photographs of the same locations today, as well as an introduction by the Newberry Library's curator of maps, Robert W. Karrow Jr. Chicago to Lake Geneva: A 100-Year Road Trip is a stellar presentation of a historical artifact-and a fascinating drive down memory lane.
