| 520 | _a"Zigzag Journeys in the White City" by Hezekiah Butterworth is a fictional travelogue written in the late 19th century. Through the story of Manton Marlowe, a dedicated public school superintendent and folk-lore enthusiast, the narrative explores his journey to the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, a grand fair aimed at celebrating the 400th anniversary of Columbus' discovery of America. The book intertwines themes of patriotism, cultural exchange, and community improvement, shedding light on how the Fair impacts American society. The opening of the narrative introduces Manton Marlowe and his family, detailing the collective decision of a local society to send him to the Fair as a representative. Manton’s father, a Quaker elder, expresses a desire to witness the Peace Congress, emphasizing his dedication to promoting peace, while young Ephraim, Manton's son, shows eagerness to accompany him. As they discuss the upcoming journey, the excitement and anticipation grow, suggesting the importance of the Fair not only as a spectacle but also as a source of inspiration and unity for their Vermont village. The significance of their experiences is underscored by Manton’s resolve to observe the Fair with an eye for what might benefit his community, setting the stage for the pivotal moments to come.
