Chicago Day celebrated the 22nd anniversary of the great Chicago fire October 9, 1871 and the city's subsequent rebirth. This thrilling account of the greatest day at the World's Columbian Exposition, 1893, is based on elaborate contemporary newspaper accounts, souvenirs of the day, and 43 candid platinum unpublished photographs. Recognized nationwide, Chicago Day was the most memorable and newsworthy day at the fair, breaking all attendance records with 3/4 million tickets sold. In spite of extensive planning, some events went awry: 5 attendees died, women fainted, children were separated from parents, and the vast evening parade stalled.Contains 225 illustrations on glossy paper, 9 in full color; and a 2 foot square high resolution fullsized reproduction of Heinze's accurate architectural map of the fairgrounds with the photographer's route and position marked in red.Includes chapters on world's fair photography by T. Yanul and gas ballooning by Ruth O. Jones, an introduction to the Columbian Exposition, and the extensive planning for Chicago Day; also selected recipes from Columbian cookbooks, bibliography, and complete index.
