Serial murderers, architects, and a giant Ferris Wheel!

What does a serial murderer, a bunch of architects, and a giant Ferris wheel have in common? It's the incredible story of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair, of course!

Join the Fireside Readers on Monday, April 7th at 7 p.m. in the community room when we discuss The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair that Changed America by Erik Larson.

Even if you have not read the book, please feel free to join us!

Plan to join us for these upcoming discussion as well:
  • May 5, 2008: On Hitler's Mountain: Overcoming the Legacy of a Nazi Childhood by Irmgard A. Hunt
  • June 2, 2008: The Worst Hard Time: The Untold Story of Those Who Survived the Great American Dust Bowl by Timothy Egan
We hope you'll join us for any of our upcoming discussions. Light refreshments will be served. For more information, contact Maureen at mlerch@uakron.edu.
