2020 Reading: Devil in the White City

#9 A book with a map


Although this book didn't really teach me anything I didn't already know about H.H. Holmes, it did teach me all about the World's Fair. It was so fascinating to learn about all of the things that the people had to go through in order to put on the fair and then all of the things that went wrong. It was also amazing to learn about all of the people and things that were at that fair that I had no idea about before, like the very first Ferris Wheel.

Interesting stuff. I think I might read this author again in the future. He makes the narrative exciting while still getting facts through in a compelling way.
