The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair that Changed America

Description

Bringing Chicago circa 1893 to vivid life, Erik Larson's spellbinding bestseller intertwines the true tale of two men--the brilliant architect behind the legendary 1893 World's Fair, striving to secure America’s place in the world; and the cunning serial killer who used the fair to lure his victims to their death. Combining meticulous research with nail-biting storytelling, Erik Larson has crafted a narrative with all the wonder of newly discovered history and the thrills of the best fiction.

Author Erik Larson imbues the incredible events surrounding the 1893 Chicago World's Fair with such drama that readers may find themselves checking the book's categorization to be sure that The Devil in the White City is not, in fact, a highly imaginative novel. Larson tells the stories of two men: Daniel H. Burnham, the architect responsible for the fair's construction, and H.H. Holmes, a serial killer masquerading as a charming doctor. Burnham's challenge was immense. In a short period of time, he was forced to overcome the death of his partner and numerous other obstacles to construct the famous "White City" around which the fair was built. His efforts to complete the project, and the fair's incredible success, are skillfully related along with entertaining appearances by such notables as Buffalo Bill Cody, Susan B. Anthony, and Thomas Edison. The activities of the sinister Dr. Holmes, who is believed to be responsible for scores of murders around the time of the fair, are equally remarkable. He devised and erected the World's Fair Hotel, complete with crematorium and gas chamber, near the fairgrounds and used the event as well as his own charismatic personality to lure victims. Combining the stories of an architect and a killer in one book, mostly in alternating chapters, seems like an odd choice but it works. The magical appeal and horrifying dark side of 19th-century Chicago are both revealed through Larson's skillful writing. --John Moe

Summary: "This book was incredible!"

This book gives many interesting facts about the making of the Chicago Fair. These sections would tend to get kind of long and a little bit boring since i am not really a fan of architect, but then BAM, you are in the mind of a serial killer. Now these sections are honestly thrilling and very enjoyable to read. The two balance each other out nicely and make for a fantastic novel! If you have some free time DEFINITELY check out this book..it was so good i was actually sad when it ended. READ IT!! DO IT!! You won't regret it!(:

Summary: "Tale of Two Architects"

This wasn't exactly what I expected. I expected the story of the 1893 Chicago Worlds Fair to be just a backdrop to the story of the atrocities of serial killer Henry H. Holmes. It turns out that it was two separate stories that just happened to take place at the same time in the same city. At first I found the abrupt switching back and forth between the stories a little jarring, but I eventually became immersed in the narrative which was a tale of two architects - an architect of beauty and an architect of death.

Larson's contrast of the two charming and attractive men - one designing and building a castle of fear and death and the other designing and creating a city of awe and beauty - was fascinating. Surprisingly, I found the story of the Worlds Fair much more interesting than the story of the serial killer. The two main stories are also peppered with appearances from historical celebrities and other memorable news events from the period. Larson weaves primary source material such as newspaper articles, correspondence, contracts and other legal documents, and menus and programs from events to really bring the people and their stories to life.

I wasn't very impressed with Larson's writing style. He tended to be very repetitive. Either he didn't remember that he had already offered certain facts or observations before, or he has a very low estimation of his readers' intelligence. He also used foreshadowing verbiage throughout the two stories that was reminiscent of the script for the sensationalist television crime show "City Confidential". But Larson IS a good story-teller, and if you can overlook the repetition and his almost comical foreshadowing technique, you will enjoy this tale of two architects.

Summary: "An accomplishment"

It's an accomplishment to finish this book. Occassionally, I felt like I was slogging through it, but it was redeemable enough to make me finish. I never would have read this book had it not been our book club pick of the month. I learned a lot....... Did I want to learn all that much???? I'm not sure. :)
