Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Great idea, not so great writing
The author had a great idea in taking a closer look at the personal stories of side show performers; however, the text itself reads like a badly written Freshman Comp. paper. Redundancies and awkward phrases abound. This book would have been greatly improved by additional editing before publication. I found the subject matter interesting but the text irksome.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Great book
There is a lot of information about the persons covered, like where they grew up and what happened until they died. There are also pictures of most of them.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - I'm glad I got this book.
I used to go to the state fair and see the displays "See the biggest steer alive!" "See the smallest woman ever!" "See the lady who had her head chopped off in a car accident and she is still alive!" I always looked down on those people. This book helped me to see them as people and I am kind of sorry that I never went in to see any of the shows.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - It's a hoot!
You have to be a touch "warped" to enjoy a book like this, but if that's what floats your boat... this is the perfect item!



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Carny Folk
A fascinating review of side show freaks and the more human side of their story. They seemed to hold a most non PC point of view, and some would fight for what they considered to be their rights as oposed to the rights allowed by others.
