Wow. The sheer amount of archival research that must have gone into the writing of this book is stunning and difficult to comprehend. It's a popular history book that reads like a crime novel. Very well executed for what it is.

Larson has a strange writing style, but he captures my favorite time period in American history beautifully. Ah, to be alive and able to attend the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago.

Also, I learned stuff. So that was good. :)
