(box picture for illustration only)The World\'s Columbian Exposition (also called The Chicago World\'s Fair), was held in Chicago in 1893, to celebrate the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus\'s arrival in the New World. The fair had a profound effect on architecture, the arts, Chicago\'s self-image, and American industrial optimism. It was the prototype of what fair designer Burnham and his colleagues thought a city should be.
The Exposition covered more than 600acres, featuring nearly 200 new buildings, canals & lagoons, and people and cultures from around the world. Over 27 million people attended the Exposition during its six-month run. Its scale & grandeur far exceeded the other world fairs.
Collected together on CD we have 19 rare, vintage books published at the time of the exposition. Featured are: indexes of exhibits, programs of events, chronological history of the fairs development, detailed guides to the exposition buildings and their contents, maps, directories of the board of directors and standing comitees.
