1 comments about Rand McNally 2003 Streetfinder Chicago & Cook County (Rand Mcnally Street Finder. Chicago & Cook County).
- I've used and liked Rand McNally street atlases before, but this one is hopeless! The grid starts in the northwest corner of Cook County and the maps work eastward. Consequently, many of the western suburbs are clearly pictured on a single page, but the eastern ones are awkwardly divided and require a lot of page-turning to view. For example, Evanston is divided between maps 101, 102, 117 and 118. The driver has to turn 3 pages to see them all. The most exasperating fact is that downtown Chicago is divided between 2 maps separated by the metal spiral, which makes them extremely difficult to read. Given that just about everyone who buys this book will at some time want to use the downtown map, Rand McNally might have included a clearer one at the beginning or end of the book. Alas, they didn't. If you are mostly driving around the south and western suburbs, this book may work for you. If you are primarily interested in Chicago and the lakefront suburbs, find another map!

1 comments about Chicago's Famous Buildings: A Photographic Guide to the City's Architectural Landmarks and Other Notable Buildings.
- It's a thorough pictorial history broken up first by era and then by location of the Windy City's skyscrapers. Unfortunately the book's age keeps more than 20 years of recent architectural changes to the city's skyline out of the text. For someone looking for the architecture of the 1980s onward, this edition is not the one to go for. If however, one is looking for a solid resource for older architecture, this book will compliment newer books nicely.
