The Devil in the White City

Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair That Changed America
Apr 07, 2018orange_lobster_23 rated this title 5 out of 5 stars
Erik Larson's uncanny ability to weave seemingly disparate personalities (Louis Sullivan, Buffalo Bill, Susan B. Anthony, psychopathic serial killer H.H. Holmes) in a larger than life historical setting (1893 Chicago Word's Fair) always amazes me. Based on real events, this book is a suspenseful, page-turning thriller. Probably the favorite of the three Erik Larson books I have read, so far.
