Passage to Chicago: Traveling the Illinois & Michigan Canal in 1860; an illustrated journey by Tom Willcockson
This book is an illustrated portrait of a week's journey on this forgotten American Waterway in the last months before the Civil War. A family travels 96 miles on a mule -drawn canal boat from the towns of LaSalle Peru on the Illinois River to the bustling city of Chicago, by the shores of Lake Michigan.
Author & illustrator Tom Willcockson’s well-researched and gorgeously-detailed maps and illustrations in this 84-page book provide fascinating insights into a way of life few of us can imagine today.
