The devoted journalists at the Chicago Tribune have been reporting
the city's news for 170 years. As a result, the paper has amassed
an inimitable, as-it-happened history of its hometown, a city first
incorporated in 1837 that rapidly grew to become the third-largest
city in the United States. Since 2011, the Chicago Tribune has been
mining its vast archive of photos and stories for its weekly
feature Chicago Flashback, which deals with the significant people
and events that have shaped the city's history and culture from the
paper's founding in 1847 to the present day. Now the editors of the
Tribune have carefully collected the best, most interesting Chicago
Flashback features into a single coffee-table volume. Each story is
accompanied by at least one black-and-white image from the paper's
fabled photo vault located deep below Michigan Avenue's famed
Tribune Tower. Chicago Flashback offers readers a unique
perspective on the city's long and colorful history.
The Chicago Tribune Book of the Chicago White Sox is a
decade-by-decade look at one of the American League's original
eight teams, starting with the franchise's Windy City beginnings in
1900 as the Chicago White Stockings (the former name of crosstown
rivals the Cubs) and ending with the current team. For more than a
century, the Chicago Tribune has documented every Sox season
through original reporting, photography, and box scores. For the
first time, this mountain of Sox history has been mined and curated
by the paper's sports department into a single one-of-a-kind
volume. Each era in Sox history includes its own timeline, profiles
of key players and coaches, and feature stories that highlight it
all, from the heavy hitters to the no-hitters to the one-hit
wonders. To be a Sox fan means to know breathtaking highs and
dramatic lows. The team's halcyon days—starting with the
championship it won during the first official season of the newly
formed American League in 1901—have always been punctuated with
doldrums and stormy stretches, including a period of time in the
'80s when it looked likely that the team would leave Chicago. But
with the diehard support of their fans, the "Good Guys" have always
made a comeback—including the team's landmark 2005 World Series
win, the first by any Chicago major league team in 88 years. This
book records it all. The award-winning journalists, photographers,
and editors of the Chicago Tribune have produced a comprehensive
collector's item that every Sox fan will love.
An in-depth look at the fifty best Bears players in franchise
history, featuring profiles and photography created by the Chicago
Tribune. The Chicago Bears football team has a grip on the Windy
City that spans generations and cultures, endures disappointments,
and impels celebration of triumphs great and small. From the team's
humble beginnings through its century-long history as the flagship
NFL franchise, the Chicago Tribune has documented every season and
kept a close eye on the superstars who have shone the brightest
over the last 100 years. The Chicago Tribune's 50 Best Chicago
Bears of All Time is a tribute to Bears tradition, collecting
classic photography and original profiles on the very best players
to don the navy and orange uniform. In 2019, as the team set out to
begin their 100th season, the Chicago Tribune took a look at the
one thousand, five hundred and eighty-two players who have ever
suited up for the Bears and culled down the list to the fifty best
of all time. The Chicago Tribune's 50 Best Chicago Bears of All
Time is a must-have collector's item for any Bears fan. From Larry
Morris to Walter Payton, the Chicago Tribune has put together an
in-depth look at each of these top players in franchise history,
with profiles that provide readers with an overview of the player's
life and career, as well as his stats and how he measures up
against the rest of the field. As a team, the Bears found success
at its very beginning, dominating the sport with four NFL titles in
the 1940s, seven winning campaigns in the 1950s, and a final title
with founder George Halas as coach in 1963. Their 1985 Super Bowl
championship transformed the city's passion into a full-blown love
affair that continues today. Professional football was practically
born in Chicago, nurtured by Halas through the Depression and a
world war. The NFL game was made for Chicago, in Chicago, by a
Chicagoan. Now the award-winning journalists, photographers, and
editors of the Chicago Tribune have produced a collector's item
that every Bears fan will love.
