If you are looking for a book about the Chicago World's Fair serial killer, this is not it. If you are looking for a book about the Chicago World's Fair architecture and exhibits and the men who designed them, with some interesting facts thrown in for good measure, you have found your book. While there are several chapters that discuss Holmes (the serial killer) interspersed throughout the book, it is not really until the last few chapters that the author focuses on Holmes as the central character of the book. I found parts of it to be dull and it definitely put me to sleep on several occasions.
