Review: Always get these prior to vacationing in the city. Great for must dos as well as suggestions. Maps are a nice bonus for those of us that still like paper maps instead of everything online.

Review: I've purchased all of the available travel books regarding Chicago and this is one of, if not the best out there (and the most up to date). If you've never been this is worth reading before you go.
