St. Louis World's Fair 365 : An Intriguing Day-by-Day Look at the 1904 World's Fair

"I can't believe it. Right here where we live. Right here in St Louis." - Esther Smith (Judy Garland) in "Meet Me in St. Louis." It was St. Louis' finest hour. Volumes have been written about the fabulous celebration. But none has told the day-by-day story of the 1904 World's Fair - until now. St. Louis World's Fair 365 relives the events of each day from January 1 through December 31, 1904. It takes a lighthearted approach, focusing on the unusual stories and legends. The chronological format allows the reader to experience the fair from the frantic preparations to the demolition of the magical kingdom through stories ranging from intriguing to tragic to just plain ridiculous. Joe Sonderman, author of St. Louis 365 and St. Louis People 365 spent years gathering contemporary accounts to give a unique perspective on an event that still fascinates St. Louisans, even after 100 years.
