Additional Work
Benjamin C. Truman wrote a catalog of the 1892/1893 World's Fair, entitled "History Of The World's Fair - Being A Complete Description Of The World's Columbian Exposition from Its Inception" and published in 1893. On the title page the author is listed as "Major Ben C. Truman of the Department of Floriculture, Author of 'Semi-Tropical California', 'Campaigning in Tennessee', 'Occidental Sketches', 'The Field of Honor', Etc." The book includes articles by various officials of the Columbian Exposition and is "profusely illustrated with engravings made from photographs and drawings of exhibits in the various departments". On the reverse of the title page is written "Entered according to Act of Congress in the year 1893, by Ben C. Truman. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED." The book is 610 pages long. This information is taken from my copy of the book. I do not know if it should be added to the article or not. Faburobin (talk) 00:12, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
