It has been accepted for inclusion in History Faculty Publications by an authorized administrator of CORE Scholar. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Religion and Reform in the City: The Re-Thinking Chicago Movement of the 1930s JACOB H. DORN Historians have produced a rich and sophisticated literature on urban reform in the progressive era before the First World War. It includes numerous studies of individual cities, biographies of urban leaders, and analyses of particular movements and organizations. This literature illu- minates important variations among reformers and their achievements, the relationships between urban growth and reform, and the functional role of the old-style political machines against which progressives battled. Similarly, there are many examinations of progressive-era reformers' ideas about and attitudes toward the burgeoning industrial cities that had come into being with disquieting rapidity during their own lifetimes. Some of these works go well beyond the controversial conclusions of Morton and Lucia White in The Intellectual Versus the City (1964) to find more complex-and sometimes more positive-assessments of the new urban civilization.' Substantially less is known about efforts to reform particular cities and about the ideas and attitudes of urban intellectuals in the interwar years, especially the 1930s.

  • Wisconsin's Super Chef Tory Miller
    Wisconsin’s Super Chef Tory Miller Wisconsin’s prolific chef Tory Miller specialises in dishes made from seasonal, locally sourced, sustainable, and organic ingredients. This is the common theme that runs through his four otherwise diverse restaurants in Madison – recently opened tapas offeringEstrellón , fine-dining restaurant L’Etoile, the gastropub Graze, and pan-Asian Sujeo. Here Miller descibes what inspires his cooking, and shares what he considers to be Madison’s gastronomic highlights. What was your childhood ambition? I actually always knew I wanted to be a chef. From a young age, I helped at my grandparents’ diner and I just loved cooking and creating food. Once I got older, I knew that I had to make it my career. What are your earliest memories of food? Being at my grandparents’ restaurant and watching the older members of my family cook on the flattop grill. When I was small, I could barely see over the top of it, but I wanted to know what was going on. Estrellón is a departure for you – what was the appeal of opening a tapas restaurant? Honestly, there wasn’t a tapas restaurant in Madison. And after traveling abroad and experiencing fantastic tapas, I knew that I wanted to share that with our city. In looking at all the restaurants here, that was the one thing missing for me. And I think that tapas happens to be the model of how people enjoy dining: eating lots of small plates and trying different things. What can diners expect at Estrellón? They can expect Spanish-style food with a lot of Midwest and Wisconsin influence.
