This is a fascinating tour of the 1936 Texas Centennial Exposition. It focuses specifically on the Art Deco art and architecture of Fair Park - the public spaces, buildings, sculptures and murals that were designed for the 1936 exposition. Most of the chapters in the book represent different areas of Fair Park, with buildings and artwork effectively arranged in the same order that a visitor to the Texas Centennial Exposition might have seen them.
