I am very pleased with the book and the price; however, a suggestion I would make is to pack the book with cardboard surrounding it and place it inside another shipping box. My book bounced around inside the shipping box and it resulted in a bent corner and bent pages.

A wonderful collection of colored images, of "The White City". I'll return to this book often, to delight in the beauty of this memorable time and city.

A beautiful collection of color and black & white photographs of the 1915 SF World's Fair. Photos include short, interesting vignettes about some of the structures. A book worth returning to, and perusing - again and again.
