Reprint of the original, first published in 1882.

Sedalia's rich architectural history began when visionaries erected wood-frame buildings prior to the Civil War. Stately brick structures later lined its downtown streets, signifying Sedalia's status as Queen of the Prairie. Throughout Sedalia's history, new generations have brought fresh ideas to enliven the city's commerce and culture. This book is a tribute to Sedalia's visionaries, past and present, and their legacy.
