I picked this up as the first book of a book club I started with some friends. It was a good choice.
An interesting parallel between the darkness of serial killer H. H. Homes's actions and the events leading up to the World's Fair in Chicago. Erik Larson has a great sense of detail that really draws you into the time. Quite interesting.
