Along the way, she details the social customs and traditions that developed in Chicago during this time, including the establishment of social clubs, the role of women in society, and the emergence of a new middle class.Throughout the book, Blair draws on primary sources such as diaries, letters, and newspaper articles to provide a vivid and detailed picture of life in Chicago during this period.
