One of the great men of his days: Olmsted was also one of the central figures to design the Chicago world fair in 1893.

If you want to get a feel for the enormous effort that fair was read:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Devil_in_the_White_City

The book contrasts the entrepreneurial energy and engineering thrive (e.g. the first use, to scale, of AC based electric light and the invention of the Ferris wheel) with the career of a frightening mass murderer.
