a| In the spring and summer of 1904, the world was focused on St. Louis, Missouri, site of a world’s fair commemorating the Louisiana Purchase Centennial. The St. Louis World’s Fair, largest and grandest of all international expositions, displayed America’s economic and artistic resources, the latest technological developments, and models for urban planning. The Fair’s organizers also brought more than 2000 indigenous peoples to St. Louis to live in “authentic” villages, reflecting both the social Darwinism of the age and America’s new role as an overseas power. The film uses reminiscences of elderly Missourians who went to the Fair, interviews with historians, archival motion pictures, and many never-before-published photographs to locate the St. Louis Fair in the social, political and cultural context of American society at the beginning of the 20th century.
