Windy City Historians presents: "The Place Native Americans Called Chicagoua"
Join us for a special event with the Windy City Historians featuring noted historian John Swenson, who will offer a new twist on Chicago history. Swenson spent decades unraveling the mystery of the location of Chicago, and the evidence he found—remarkably—calls into question the story told by most 19th century historians. Reception: 5:30, Program 6 - 7:15 p.m. Location: 14 E Jackson Blvd, Suite 1600. Click here for more details. To RSVP, email chaddick@depaul.edu
