The Best Books to Learn About Chicago

We’ve heard from listeners and newsletter readers that some of you have New Year's resolutions to read more in 2025 or add more books about Chicago to your home libraries. So we decided to curate our very own Chicago reading list with Chicago writer, scholar, and cultural organizer Eve Ewing.

We’re doing a survey to learn more about our listeners. We’d be grateful if you took the survey at citycast.fm/survey — it’s only 7 minutes long. You’ll be doing us a big favor. Plus, anyone who takes the survey will be eligible to win a $250 Visa gift card and City Cast City swag.
