Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The M. H. De Young Memorial Museum, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, California
Fulfilling his duties in this position, Mr. De Young was brought into close touch with many foreign exhibitors and he found them most favorably disposed toward his plan for a California exposition, to which they might send their collections. With this encouragement, he called a meeting of Californians then in Chicago and at the same time began a campaign in San Francisco to arouse enthusiasm for the plan.
