Chicago's White City of 1893 by David F. Burg is packed full of info. Less about the planning and building of the fair, and more about the Fair itself.
Spectacle in the White City: The Chicago 1893 World's Fair by Stanley Appelbaum is a gorgeous coffee table book packed with illustrations.
The World's Columbian Exposition: The Chicago World's Fair of 1893 is large, full of illustrations. Takes the reader almost on a tour of the fair as if you were walking it.
