      title = {The third coast : when Chicago built the American dream /},
      abstract = {Much of what defined the nation as it grew into a  superpower was produced in Chicago. Before air travel  overtook trains, nearly every coast-to coast journey  included a stop there, and this flow of people and  commodities made it America's central clearinghouse,  laboratory, and factory. And even as Chicago led the way in  creating mass-market culture, its artists pushed back in  their own distinct voices. Chicago native Thomas Dyja  re-creates the story of the city in its postwar prime and  explains its profound impact on modern America.},
