"Exit to Tomorrow is an illustrated survey of the world's most optimistic ideas of the future, from Chicago's 1933 Century of Progress exposition to Expo 2005 in Aichi, Japan." "Focusing on the golden era of world's fairs, from the 1930s to the 1970s, this book offers a nostalgic glimpse of the future in vintage photographs and drawings of the World's Fair pavilions created by such designers and architects as Le Corbusier, Norman Bel Geddes, and Buckminster Fuller. This souvenir of yesterday's tomorrow is a superb tour of the achievements of avant-garde architecture and design."--BOOK JACKET.
