The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair that Changed America

Bringing Chicago circa 1893 to vivid life, Erik Larson's spellbinding bestseller intertwines the true tale of two men--the brilliant architect behind the legendary 1893 World's Fair, striving to secure America?s place in the world; and the cunning serial killer who used the fair to lure his victims to their death. Combining meticulous research with nail-biting storytelling, Erik Larson has crafted a narrative with all the wonder of newly discovered history and the thrills of the best fiction.  more

No spoilers. I am a voracious reader, with many years of reading behind me. This is one of the 5 best books I've read. It was in my top ten tentatively by page 40 or so. If the first 20 pages (or even the first 10) don't grab you,...

A Devilish Time!

Eerie moments in time

A bit plodding and filler, but all in all a decent read. Amazing story about the dark secrets within human nature and its close proximity to the naive. Be careful around those who seem properly ordered. You may be surprised. Vigilance...
