With "The Place of Religion in Chicago", Wilbur Zelinsky and Stephen A. Matthews provide the first detailed, systematic geographical study of the religious landscape of Chicago. Zelinsky and Matthews have scoured the city - from the South Side to the West Side to the North Side - to document and investigate the locations and traits of the various houses of worship, as well as the congregations that sustain them. Their account is rounded out with photographs, color maps, and tables, making this volume valuable to geographers, sociologists, and anthropologists - but also to anyone with an interest in Chicago and its heritage.
