Strategically located at the head of the Great Lakes on the Chicago portage, Chicago was equally valued by explorers, traders, settlers, and governments. This title traces the events leading from Chicago's emergence as a key outpost at the edge of the frontier to its establishment as the crossroads of American commerce.
