  15. Review: 'The Third Coast' by Thomas Dyja

    The title of the first chapter of Thomas Dyja's "The Third Coast: When Chicago Built the American Dream," evokes a smile: "The Brick Is Another Teacher." Dyja's book is roughly brick-size and brick-heft, and I wondered what it might have to teach. • His subtitle suggests that Dyja aims to join the long and semi-honorable tradition of Chicago boosterism, books that claim Chicago is "world-class" in something, or that Chicago's influence on this, that or the other aspect of American culture has been underestimated. Such urban braggadocio was one foundation of Chicago, which grew from prairie trading post to world city so quickly in no small part due to the extreme claims of developers and politicians. But back to bricks.
