Inscribed by author on title page.
In 1968, a world's fair sparked a transformation of San Antonio. A monolithic Old Guard overcame four decades of post-Depression lethargy to put on the event, only to find itself soon overthrown by populist forces unleashed by the new energy. As change rippled outward, rising minority political groups gained a decisive voice in economic developments.
This is the story of San Antonio before Hemisfair and what it became after Hemisfair. The story is told first hand by community and business leaders who made the decisions to bring the 1968 World's Fair to San Antonio.

I ship domestically in the US using the Post Office and internationally using consolidation services. Books are always wrapped then packed in cardboard boxes with padding to protect the contents. International shipments are double boxed with shipping paperwork attached to the outside of the box using a special envelope.
