About this book

Ordinary Life, Festival Days: Aesthetics In The Midwestern County Fair by Leslie Prosterman. Paperback edition. ISBN: 9781560984085.

A cultural and historical analysis of the famous rural institution, the county fair. Encompassing the year-long preparations, the premium book, the judging process, and the midway, Prosterman (American studies, U. of Maryland) argues that participants devise an aesthetic system that places their activities in the realm of art.
