Synopsis

It is essentially the story of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, from its conception in the fertile minds of St. Louis' "city fathers" to the closing night cerermonies on December 1, 1904. It is a thoroughly researched historical document filled with thousands of facts; and yet, unlike many historical works, the book is easy and enjoyable reading.
