Unlike most guidebooks, "Alternative Chicago" will not tell you where to stay or how to get around in Chicago. There are already dozens of guidebooks on these subjects- one of which you probably own. "Alternative Chicago" by Bill Franz is for younger, discriminating folks. Where in the world is the Ennui Cafe? Have you been to see Dr. Wax? From age 16 to 60, you can appreciate Franz"s neighborhood-by-neighborhood search for the best book stores, vintage clothing stores, diners and clubs, and much more. He"ll even give you the phone numbers, store hours, addresses, and maps to help you find more than 300 distinctly Chicago places. From Hyde Park to Roscoe Village, "Alternative Chicago" will point you towards the most unique, hip, and virtually unknown places in the Windy City.
