ABOUT THIS BOOK
This carefully researched study of America's greatest showman, huckster, and impresario is both an inclusive analysis of the historical and cultural forces that were the conditions of P. T. Barnum's success, and, as befits its subject, a richly entertaining presentation of the outrageous man and his exploits. See other books on: (Phineas Taylor) | 1810-1891 | Barnum, P. T.
