Whose Fair? by James Gilbert
The 1904 Saint Louis World's Fair was a major event in early twentieth-century America. This title asks: what can we learn about the lived experience of fairgoers when we compare historical accounts, individual and collective memories, and artifacts from the event? It paints a lively picture of how fairgoers spent their time.
