Synopsis

This book in the "Circus, Carnival & Menagerie: A Series of Classic Works" series contains portions of "Theatrical and Circus Life or, Secrets of the Stage, Green-Room and Sawdust Arena" but has maintained and edited only the portions relevant to circus, carnival or menagerie. The pieces used are meant to be an "expose" of the sort where the original author writes in a manner that both demonizes the circus industry and romanticizes it. The book covers various subjects offering a tabloid like "peak behind the curtain" and also discusses such figures as P.T. Barnum, George L. Fox, Captain Costentenus, General Tom Thumb and others. This title offers a different take on the big show from the vantage point of a writer during the "Golden Age" of the circus. Circus, Carnival & Menagerie: A Series of Classic Works is a great series that offers high quality versions of past works at a great affordable price.
