Event Description:
Join the Greater Susquehanna Valley Young Professionals for our monthly book club meeting. This month, we'll read and discuss "The Devil in the White City" by Erik Larson.
"Author Erik Larson imbues the incredible events surrounding the 1893 Chicago World's Fair with such drama that readers may find themselves checking the book's categorization as non-fiction to be sure that 'The Devil in the White City' is not, in fact, a highly imaginative novel. Larson tells the stories of two men: Daniel H. Burnham, the architect responsible for the fair's construction, and H.H. Holmes, a serial killer masquerading as a charming doctor. " - Goodreads.com
