The Chicago River: A History in Photographs is the product of almost
three years of research, image acquisition, writing, and production.
Numerous libraries and photography collections in Chicago were searched
for images of the Chicago River. Professional and amateur photographers
were asked to provide images that represent a modern glimpse of the
Chicago River today. A list of photo credits for images included in the
finished book is provided on this page. This book would not have been
possible without the cooperation of so many artists, individuals, and
institutions.
Many Chicago historians and river enthusiasts also provided valuable
help in researching the river's wonderful history. Their generosity of
time, energy, and expertise have helped to make this an informative and
educational endeavor. Full credits can be found in the acknowledgements
page in the book.
