Selected pages from the official illustrated book on the Woman's Building at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, edited by Maud Howe Elliott. Tess Parrish's 2002 scan keeps the title pages, prefaces, contents and illustration lists, and the three articles that mention lace (Belgium, Cottage Industries in Scotland and Ireland, and Italy). It also includes the book's lace illustrations: needle-point and bobbin lace, flounces, shawls, fans, cradles, vestments, macramé, and lace needles and bobbins. The Irish and Italian texts cover lace-making revival schemes, such as the Youghal convent and the Countess di Brazzà's school.
