Palaces on the Prairie

From the 1880s to the 1930s, at least 34 "prairie palaces" of one sort or another sprang up in at least 24 towns across the Midwest. Their themes ranged in scope from grasses to grains to minerals, but all sought the same goal - attention! Evans' book attempts to tackle many unanswered questions surrounding the successes and failures of each palace and community.
