Product Information

In The Devil in the White City, the smoke, romance, and mystery of the Gilded Age come alive as never before. Two men, each handsome and unusually adept at his chosen work, embodied an element of the great dynamic that characterized America's rush toward the twentieth century. The architect was Daniel Hudson Burnham, the fair's brilliant director of works and the builder of many of the country's most important structures, including the Flatiron Building in New York and Union Station in Washington, D.C. The murderer was Henry H. Holmes, a young doctor who, in a malign parody of the White City, built his "World's Fair Hotel" just west of the fairgrounds--a torture palace complete with dissection table, gas chamber, and 3,000-degree crematorium. Burnham overcame tremendous obstacles and tragedies as he organized the talents of Frederick Law Olmsted, Charles McKim, Louis Sullivan, and others to transform swampy Jackson Park into the White City, while Holmes used the attraction of the great fair and his own satanic charms to lure scores of young women to their deaths. What makes the story all the more chilling is that Holmes really lived, walking the grounds of that dream city by the lake. The Devil in the White City draws the reader into a time of magic and majesty, made all the more appealing by a supporting cast of real-life characters, including Buffalo Bill, Theodore Dreiser, Susan B. Anthony, Thomas Edison, Archduke Francis Ferdinand, and others. Erik Larson's gifts as a storyteller are magnificently displayed in this rich narrative of the master builder, the killer, and the great fair that obsessed them both.

    Shipping was as expected: Less than a week. Packaging was very well protected. The quality of each album was as advertised, in sound, great, or mint condition. The value was excellent, that's why I bought it, and the appearance was satisfactory. It's great when a seller delivers what they advertise. I will definitely buy from this seller again.

    Excellent transaction! The CD arrived very well packed, protecting the cardboard sleeve from any damage during shipping. Reliable seller who ships fast, pays attention to details, and responds quickly when contacted. Would definitely do business again! 👍🏻

    I received my package very quickly. The packaging was perfectly sealed and no damage to product. It was as described and better. Pictures don't truly capture colors and items well. I was happy with the price of the product as it was almost in brand new condition. Would trust and definitely do business with this vendor in the future.
