This is like The Hunchback of Notre Dame all over again. Why must I suffer through boring ass architecture talk to get through the decent stuff.

this was interesting at first, then it got boring for most of it, then it got interesting again at the end

This audio book was long and drawn out. There were only a few parts of the story that I was actually interested in. If I were reading the book in print I could have skimmed the mundane parts like menus. I'm glad I finished because I did learn a lot about Chicago's history.
