 * < "this real-life drama of good and evil unfolds with all the narrative tension of a fictional thriller." - Barnes and Nobles

"It is excellent nonfiction, chronicling the hurly-burly planning and construction of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair (which did, as the title suggests, include building what amounted to an entire city) and a cruelly calculating sociopath who used the event's and crowds to serve his homicidal compulsion." Publisher's Weekly

"the schematic observation that late-nineteenth-century urban despair was twinned with civic optimism and thereby illustrates the timeless and ineluctable struggle between good and evil." -Collin Morris ||<  ||
