Reviews
"This biographical account provides a treasure trove of insights into [Ogden's] personal and financial growth, hardships, machinations, and abiding commitment to this great Midwestern metropolis."-- Jason Kozlowski, Journal of the Illinois State Historical Society "This is a much needed full-length biography of William Butler Ogden, an uncommon doer who helped to shape Chicago, the Midwest, and the American railroad network. The 'real' Ogden comes alive, a personality that previously has not been fully revealed."-- H. Roger Grant, author of Visionary Railroader: Jervis Langdon Jr. and the Transportation Revolution "Had Ogden not settled in frontier Chicago and become its preeminent capitalist and urban builder, the city might have remained a backwater settlement. Harpster has given us a nuanced and balanced treatment of Ogden's raucous life and times."-- Donald L. Miller , author of City of the Century, The Epic of Chicago and the Making of Modern America, "This biographical account provides a treasure trove of insights into [Ogden's] personal and financial growth, hardships, machinations, and abiding commitment to this great Midwestern metropolis."-- Jason Kozlowski, Journal of the Illinois State Historical Society "This is a much needed full-length biography of William Butler Ogden, an uncommon doer who helped to shape Chicago, the Midwest, and the American railroad network. The 'real' Ogden comes alive, a personality that previously has not been fully revealed."-- H. Roger Grant, author of Visionary Railroader: Jervis Langdon Jr. and the Transportation Revolution "This is an insightful biography of a hugely important figure in Chicago history.

Harpster has given us a nuanced and balanced treatment of Ogden's raucous life and times."-- Donald L. Miller, author of City of the Century, The Epic of Chicago and the Making of Modern America
