The World's Greatest Fair - documentary

It was the beginning of what Teddy Roosevelt called “the American century”. The 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair was intended to be the biggest and best World’s Fair ever. And it was. This engaging movie presents the fair as never before through a series of compelling and often funny stories.
