Challenging Chicago: Coping with Everyday Life,… by Perry R. Duis

I was lucky enough to take a class with Professor Duis, and not only did I love the class, I really enjoy his books. I found this one at a used store, and was thrilled to find it --- fascinating, and he really has a great writing style that makes history come alive.
