This volume was published in 1902.

From the book's Prefatory Note:

This book was compiled to supply the demand for a
standard volume of facts concerning men of prominence in
Kansas City. No such book has appeared since Col. Theo-
dore Case issued his ''History of Kansas City," twenty years
ago. The need of a reliable work of this kind has long been
felt, especially by the newspapers, whose only resource in case
of an emergency is to a book which contains few of the pres-
ent generation.

Necessarily the names of many desirous of appearing in
the compilation have been omitted because not deemed by the
editors of sufficient prominence. The effort has been to in-
clude, so far as possible, all those in whom the general public
is interested. It was the idea of the compilers to make a
book that would be a standard volume to be used by news-
papers and libraries.
