      The book explores the rich history of a village along the upper Des Plaines River, originally known as Vardin's Grove before becoming Libertyville in the 1840s. It highlights significant landmarks like the Cook House, built by state legislator Ansel Brainerd Cook, and the estates of railroad tycoon Samuel Insull, who once owned 6,000 acres in the area. The narrative captures various aspects of community life, including business, education, and entertainment, alongside historic events such as the Lake County Fair and a notable 1924 train robbery.
