Growing Up With Glenview


Growing Up With Glenview, by Fred A. Rugen, compiled and edited by his daughter, Betty Rugen Schutter.

Fred A. Rugen's grandfather was among the first settlers of Northfield Township. Mr. Rugen was always active in Glenview community affairs, and often told stories of his life growing up in Glenview. These are a few of the stories he wrote down with the encouragement of his family, and they provide a glimpse of life in the early days of Glenview, the values of the times, and the life philosophy of a Glenview businessman and member of a founding family.

Growing Up With Glenview is available for $12.00 at The Glenview History Center, 1121 Waukegan Rd., Glenview, 847-724-2235.
