4 comments about A Native's Guide to Chicago's South Suburbs (Native's Guide).
- This is the funniest guide book I've ever read! The authors' sarcasim and dry wit actually made reading about yard ornaments fun. I lived in the south suburbs for 20 years and had no idea that all these historical events took place "in my own backyard". The only bad thing I can say is that 250+ pages was too short. The book was so interesting and fun I wanted more!
- The authors take a lighthearted view of Chicago's South suburbs. The book is not only a great guide to what's happening in the era, but gives the reader a tongue-in-cheek peek tour, complete with insider details. A must read for new area residents!
- This is a pretty neat book with a lot of interesting facts. It's cool that someone put out a book about our area. It was fun to read too. The authors are smart-alexs. If you're from the area, I'd say snag a copy.
- Quotes from articles:
"..part practical...part humorous" Andrew Herrmann, Chicago Sun-Times "The book is a comprehensive tour of information about historic forts, sprawling homes, old churches, forgotten cemeteries ice cream parlors, country clubs, biking, fishing, horseback riding, even accordion sing-a-longs" Charles J. Shields, The Star "It is a true insiders' look at 'that stretch of land past I-55', written in an often witty, always eclectic style." Joanne Zerkel, The Star "Book destroys myth of cultural-less South Suburbs" Terry Loncaric, The Star "...informal and informative" Dan Pearson, Daily Southtown Also received wonderful write-ups/discussions from The Joliet Herald, The Lincoln-Way Sun and the Spike O'Dell show on WGN AM Radio.
