O.T.
Also a very good read by Larson is The Devil in the White City about the 1893 Grand Colombian Exposition and serial killer H.H. Homes. Its a true classic and well worth the read if you have an interest in Chicago history.

I adore that book — I’ve read it twice. I picked it up for the serial killer and got an unexpected dose of architecture, which I really enjoyed. Amazingly, it was assigned to my daughter’s 11th grade Honors American Lit class. She’s enjoying it too. Did you like “Thunderstruck?”
