(4) 4-6 Jackson ably provides a roundup of the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair, describing in detail its buildings and what was inside them. Although he mentions some of the darker sides of the fair--including the forced displays of "primitive" tribes--he glosses over others, such as the protests against clearing the trees in Forest Park, where the fair was held. Black-and-white period photos illustrate the text. Reading list. Ind.
