Description: PT Barnum Biography Collection believe 1st edition if memory serves right. Good read and nice decoration conversation piece. Will learn growing up a farm boy in small town CT, rise to NYC to the circus. How basically started a city that was a blueprint for the west, his imprint on Denver CO and going broke. Also designed the modern cemetery where buried with best friend Tom Thumb. Very interesting man who impacted America and can still hear his voice today in phrases still used. Have collection of professionally framed pictures, prints and other pieces if interested. I rode past where the circus was kept everyday with my grandfather picking my grandmother from work and etched in my mind was watching men bathing the elephants. My grandfather took wonderful places as a child.
