he Monocle Travel Guide Chicago
Chicago is a city of many different faces. It's sweltering in the summer and ice-bound in the winter. For every soaring skyscraper there's a Prairie-style property with a porch. Fine-dining establishments brush shoulders with classic American diners. It may be hundreds of miles from the ocean but Lake Michigan creates the illusion of sweeping seaside views. We've ridden the rattling L train around the Windy City in search of our favourite hotels, from luxury lodgings in the Loop to a family-run find in a former publishing house across the river. We've taste-tested restaurants serving dazzling dishes from around the world, as well as the odd joint offering cheesy slices of deepdish pizza. Join us as we explore the museums and galleries shaking up the art world, and the improv clubs making us laugh until we cry. Plus, more than a handful of intimate bars at which to end - or extend - the night. Chicago is a warm (in summer) and welcoming city that brings together the best of many metropolises in the US - from the sandy beaches of Los Angeles and the neighbourhood feel of San Francisco to the vibrant culture of New York - with a dash of that famous Midwestern hospitality. We're pulling into the station; hop on board.

Growing Up in Nipper's Harbour
Here is the budding consciousness of a young girl in a small Newfoundland fishing community during the final years of its prosperous isolation. As a treasured only child, she weaves diverting observations with delicate introspection to create an intriguing view of her society and herself. Wonderingly, she gradually becomes aware of the local economy and culture: the hustle and muscle of an unusually rich fishery, her matrix of relatives and religion, the annual rituals and daily rounds, the home remedies and hopeful charms. Accidents and illness make her mindful of a wider world. Education requires travel. And the gravel road snaking steadily over rocky hills will fade her birthplace into a feeding of memories. This fate she shares with many millions who have sustained similar changes. - Dr. Harold Paddock, Professor of Linguistics, emeritus, Memorial University of Newfoundland
