I just found a first british edition of "If Christ came to Chicago" by Rev William T Stead dated 1890. Rev Stead wrote about the corruption in Chicago in the 1890's. The book sold about 70,000 copies in its day.
Here are some links about the book and even a online version of the book:

Rev Stead died in the titanic disaster in 1912. Here is a great link to his life and works:
