Excerpt from Report of the President: To the Board of Directors of the World's Columbian Exposition, Chicago, 1892-1893 I have the honor to submit to you my final report as president of the World's Columbian Exposition. In its preparation I have endeavored to sketch briefly the principal transactions of the company, including the work of the preliminary organization. Since the work, for the performance of which the company was organized, is now almost completed, it is proper that such a record should be made, and I undertake it for the purpose, first, of recalling to the minds of the directors the various important features of the great enterprise, which are rapidly fading from our recollection; and second, for the purpose of affording to those whose duty it may be to conduct similar enterprises in the future, whatever benefit may be derived from our experience. The work of your company began in April, 1890. The writer did not become your chief executive until August, 1892, a few weeks before the dedication of the Exposition buildings, and less than a year before the date fixed for its opening. The difficulties of my position are understood by all of you, and they will not be urged except in extenuation of my shortcomings, I have served as a director of this company from its organization in April, 1890. In April, 1891, I was called to be chairman of the Committee on Ways and Means, by reason of the ill-health of its first chairman, Otto Young.

The final chronologically arranged volume in the series, it will present the last stage of Olmsted's career, with a firm that included his former students Henry Sargent Codman and Charles Eliot as new partners. During this time Olmsted concentrated his energies on his two last great commissions: one was the World's Columbian Exposition of 1893 on the site of the Chicago South Park that he and Vaux had designed in 1871, with subsequent redesigning of Jackson Park and the Midway; the other was the extensive Biltmore Estate in North Carolina. There will also be correspondence concerning the development of the park systems of Louisville, Kentucky, and proposals for park systems in Milwaukee and Kansas City. The volume will present some of the remarkable retrospective letters he wrote to Mariana Griswold Van Rensselaer and his son, Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr. It will conclude with several undated and unfinished writings on the history and principles of landscape design.

Robert W. Rydell contends that America's early world's fairs actually served to legitimate racial exploitation at home and the creation of an empire abroad. He looks in particular to the "ethnological" displays of nonwhites—set up by showmen but endorsed by prominent anthropologists—which lent scientific credibility to popular racial attitudes and helped build public support for domestic and foreign policies. Rydell's lively and thought-provoking study draws on archival records, newspaper and magazine articles, guidebooks, popular novels, and oral histories.

In the nineteenth century, politicians transformed a disease-infested bog on the shore of Lake Michigan into an intensely managed waterscape supporting the life and economy of Chicago. Liquid Capital shows how Chicago's waterfront became both an economic hub and the site of many precedent-setting decisions about public land use.
