The Opportunity Of Chicago To Become A Great City: 1901-1903, A Discussion Of The Traction Question is a book written by Edmund Janes James and published in 1903. The book focuses on the potential of Chicago to become a great city and the role of the traction industry in achieving this goal. James discusses the history of Chicago's growth and the challenges it faced in terms of transportation, particularly the issue of traction. He examines the various modes of transportation available at the time, including streetcars, cable cars, and elevated trains, and evaluates their effectiveness in meeting the needs of the city. James also discusses the political and economic factors that influenced the development of the traction industry in Chicago, including the role of monopolies and the impact of labor strikes. Ultimately, the book argues that the success of Chicago as a great city is closely tied to the growth and improvement of its transportation infrastructure.1. The Present Crisis; 2.
