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

This is a great book- very exciting to read as well as very informative. Reads like a mystery story, but it's non-fiction!

I prefer to read non-fiction- so I was disappointed when this clearly turned out to be a fiction book. The story was ok, not the greatest, not the worst book I ever read.
