Ogden, the first mayor of Chicago. James provides insights into the political and social dynamics of the time, and offers a fascinating glimpse into the early history of one of America’s most important cities.Overall, The Charters of the City of Chicago, Part 1-2: The Early Charters, 1833-1837 (1898) is an important historical work that sheds light on a crucial period in the development of Chicago.
